I spent some two hours one day adding a long section on traditions, only to have Windows restart while I was out of the room, trashing the whole thing. Here are the topics that I think deserve addition:

  • Sing Song. (history, definition - a cappella ensemble performances + divisions + host/hostess role, the 50th anniversary, time of year, possibly a picture)
  • Lectureship. (history, definition, the 2006 change from fall to spring)
  • Social clubs. (description of concept, distinguish from fraternities/sororities, list of active clubs)
  • Spring Break Campaigns
  • Chapel

Also, the Study Abroad programs are not mentioned -- in fact, none of its programs are mentioned, even though the College of Business Administration has received many awards and (IIRC) been named in regional lists of good business schools. There is no mention whatsoever of the graduate programs, and this is a school that offers doctorates.

Don't get me wrong -- I hate when articles on universities turn into public relations pieces. I'm simply saying that much of what is noteworthy about the school by a neutral POV standard is absent here.Lawikitejana 20:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Agree, for a school this size and the size of endowment this site needs work. Will try to better it as a fellow LSC student but any faculty, students, alumni, friens, or more advanced wiki users should if possible try. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ASUPhotog (talk • contribs) 22:21, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

Accreditation

I agree with the other discussion thread that there is not enough currently included in this article.


I agree with the person above who noted how much is missing from the current article. Where are the sections about "Student Life" and "Academics" and "Rules" and things like that? Maybe someone more familiar with the school could add these? Look at Pepperdine University, Harding University, and Lipscomb University for models. Josh a brewer 15:59, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Also missing that it's Engineering program is ABET accredited and that part of the Computer Science program is also ABET accredited.

Segregation

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article says that the school was"officially segregated" until 1961. It would be informative to clarify whether this meant that only students of a particular skin tone or whatever, i.e. only those held to be racially "white" or "Caucasian" or of "European" ancestry or extraction were admitted, or whether the school maintained separate ("but equal") classes for members of particular racial types. As it stands, it's not clear (to me, anyway). --Haruo (talk) 17:46, 14 June 2019 (UTC) "I added "for white students only"Jacona (talk) 18:40, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
