Greek Life

Just curious, the page lists the Greek life with two fraternities and three sororities. Those listed are national organizations. When I attended, there were several frats and sororities that were only located at the college itself. Most were members of these organizations, not the nationals. Do they still exist, if so why aren't they listed? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hardnfast (talk • contribs) 04:41, 22 April 2007 (UTC).

Sorry so late, but I would be happy to answer your questions. FSC has a long standing history of local fraternities and Sororities. Currently, as of January 2009 the only active Fraternities are Sigma Pi and Sigma Tau Gamma, and sororities are Alpha Sigma Tau, Phi Sigma Sigma and Sigma Sigma Sigma. All whom are Nationally/International organizations. All of the "Local" greek organizations dissipated between 1990-2000. The Earliest was the Fenwick Society, and the last the Mohawk Society and Adelphian Society. The Esoteric Society recently held a reunion at FSC in 2007. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.162.214.197 (talk) 06:37, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Robert Cormier

I suggest an edit to the notable alumni listing for Robert Cormier. Cromier went to school here for about a semester, but is not considered an alumni as he did not graduate with a degree. He did, how ever, donate his personal archive to the library as a notable resident of the area. It might be a good idea to put a section into this page about special collections housed in the library as there are a number.

College Symbol

Hello. I suggest that a picture of the FSC Seal would be more appropriate instead of the current image of the college on a cloudy winter day. Thank you. Jcook5 (talk) 17:41, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I dont know the rules when it comes to placing the seal of the school there... it is coppyrighted. If you want to go through all the hoops go right ahead.--Found5dollar (talk) 20:57, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Assessment

I think this article would be a C-class because there are far too many bulleted lists that should be turned into paragraphs. I especially would move to remove the list of majors and departments, consult the Carnegie Classifications, Factbook, and Common Data Set to provide some comparative context, and consult university and news archives to build up sources and information on its history, campus, organization, etc. Integrating the information from those sources into the article and consulting and implementing the structure from WP:UNIGUIDE would go a long way toward plugging some of the major holes in the article and bringing it up to B status.

WP:UNI Assessment

Wow, Madcoverboy's beat me to reviewing this article already! That confirms it... he doesn't sleep... he waits...

OK, all jokes aside, the following is your review:

• WP:UNIGUIDE. There are sections that needs to conform to the formatting and layout with other university articles on Wikipedia. If you need help, we can help you with that.
• The athletics logo/mascot should be in the infobox. We have a section for you to place the logo there.
• Section "Majors and Concentration" should be merged into "Academics" and in prose.
• Section "Rankings and Accreditations" should be merged into "Academics" as well.
• Sections "Buildings", "Library", "Transportation", "Tunnels" and "Dining Facilities" should be merged into "Campus" (unless there's something super notable about the library that it should deserve its own section)
• Section "Presidents" should be placed in prose in the "History" section

I'll run a typo check. If you need help, please let us know! - Jameson L. Tai ^{talk ♦ contribs} 15:25, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

TURN IT UP

Ditch Mimes, a sludgy metal band consisting of two Fitchburg professors, might be notable? Can someone consider writing it up? Drmies (talk) 01:03, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
