Lack of photos and refs ... comwe one ... someone make your name! 22:48, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

Failed GA

No lead, stubby paragraphs, no footnotes, very short, only covers math and computing, nothing on faculty or students, trivia section violates section 3b. Rlevse 13:50, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

I removed the News and Trivia sections because they seem to be breeding grounds for non-Wiki crap. Submitters should both incorporate information into the general narrative of the history of the school, and source all of their "trivia". --Nufftin 14:05, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Users who edit this page generally go to this College. Therefore, it should be understood that they can be entrusted to document recent news and events concerning the College. All trivia can often be cited to the College's newspaper which is published each term.

Vandalism

The news and trivia sections should be removed because Wikiepdia is not really about curren events, nor is it a bulletin board, etc. Regarding trivia, certain editors, possibly but not necessarily students or alumni, have vandalized this page repeatedly. Therefore, rather thn applying the usual assumption of goodwill one must scrutinize everything that is here and chop out anything that might be suspect. Shaundakulbara 10:53, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

The new section at the top?

I moved the new section created lower down the page, only for my edit to be reverted minutes later. I would like other people's views on where this section should go. It should go after history and results, because it is not a large section and it does not contain sufficient information yet. Sas1998 (Talk) 19:50, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm thinking it certainly needs to be further down the page than it currently is. I'll make that change now. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 22:02, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
