I propose removing Marcus Einfield as notable alumni?
editWhile it is uncommon for people to falsely claim degrees from institutions that have frequently been called a diploma mill in the news media, it is not unheard of. There's a verifiable source that says that in 2006 PWU said that this Marcus Einfield fellow was not a PWU alumni.[1] It could be assumed that he was a graduate of PWU Hawaii. I suspect though that if PWU California in 2006 responded that he was not a PWU graduate when he had possibly graduated from PWU Hawaii that they would be vulnerable to a lawsuit for defamation. I guess it's possible though that PWU responded that he simpy wasn't a graduate of PWU California and the journalist wasn't clear on this somewhat insignificant point in his writing. (At least not significant from the Australasian Business Intelligence news article's point of view.) (See discussion above in the previous section regarding how very common it is for people not to differentiate between PWU Hawaii and PWU California.) I'll delete Marcus Einfield as an alumni. If anyone thinks that it would be better to revert my deletion and instead add the statement saying that PWU said he wasn't a graduate then that would be okay with me as well.

Tallmagic, I am in total agreement with your reasoning. If he was a graduate of PWU it was not PWU California. Good job. Angelone7749 (talk) 16:26, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know what year he was supposed to have earned his degree but if it was before 1990 then there was no PWU Hawaii only PWU? The point being that if he was not a graduate of PWU Califonia, I'm not sure that it follows that he must be a graduate of PWU Hawaii? Regards, TallMagic (talk) 16:42, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- alumni? Do you mean, ‘alumnus’? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2403:5807:1A18:0:2D4D:D4BD:8EA1:C5E1 (talk) 10:22, 27 July 2024 (UTC)
