Proposed change
edit | This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
I work for Grinnell College and noticed that this page has some content that doesn't seem neutral and some that isn't on topic. I also have additional links to several articles about the award winners that may be of interest. If you agree with my suggested changes, please update them.
Also, before I learned that we shouldn't be updated pages related to our employers, I made some edits to this page. Would you be willing to review them and let me know if you disapprove of any of them? Thanks
- Specific text to be added or removed:
Remove Nomination Criteria section Alternately, replace it with the paragraph that starts "In seeking nominations each fall,..." that appears at the top of the page.
- Reason for the change: The nomination criteria change a little each year. The summary at the top of the page is a pretty good description of the basic criteria. And most committee members aren't particularly notable, so the list of members doesn't seem like an important detail.
- References supporting change: N/A?
- Specific text to be added or removed: Remove History of Social Justice at Grinnell
- Reason for the change: Doesn't seem on topic (or am I wrong? Please keep if it does feel on topic to you, as my colleagues would probably prefer it stays.)
- References supporting change: N/A?

Done Thank you for getting in touch. I have implemented most of the requests. I removed the whole History of Social Justice section given it was unreferenced and promotional. I appreciate the numerous citations! PK650 (talk) 00:19, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
