Data and sourcing problem

edit

I was trying to process the article for DYK and noticed:

  • The data for Male/Female "45%/45%" can't be right.
  • The sourcing with just http://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/ is not adequate: a direct link to the page with the data is needed; sources can't send readers on a wild-goose chase inside a database.
  • I'm not sure the article's claim about "first African-American college president in Connecticut" is correct: the source takes pains to say, "first African American president of a four-year institution of higher education in Connecticut", hinting that the wider claim for "college president" was probably already taken by someone else before (such as a president of a 2-year college or such).
