| Hi @] I invite you to actually look at the sources for the endowment, which does not misstate it. Furthermore, Mr. Cummings is the namesake of the graduate veterinarian school and the new largest building on the undergraduate campus. He has signed The Giving Pledge and is worth billions, which I think constitutes success in business. Happy Thanksgiving. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 21:56, 27 November 2024 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> | |||
| :Thanks for the note. "Net assets" is not the same as an endowment. In fact, the source you cited explicitly says "the endowment grew to over $2.4 billion." And you're welcome to create an article about Cummings and then we can consider if he should be added to the article. ] (]) 22:19, 27 November 2024 (UTC) | |||

John Jay Article
Hey, I don't know how to leave a signature so sorry about that but saw your edit. Those were college majors (have provided a link to the correct source), I don't know if it's against WP policy to list the majors the college offers (if it does, please feel free to let me know or undo it and I apologize) but wanted to give you the heads up. Anyway, it is dedicated to Criminal Justice, hence the college's name (John Jay College of Criminal Justice).

Would you kindly merge the articles please? Haven't had time to discover how; appreciate your help! Sapienna (talk) 20:06, 15 December 2024 (UTC)
Ursuline College
Hi @ElKevbo! I was wondering if it would be possible to restore the additions recently made to the Ursuline College page regarding their ranking by U.S. News and World Report. Other Ohio universities' pages use extremely similar wording, like under the Academics and Rankings section of Bowling Green State University. Let me know your thoughts, and thanks so much for your help! I am new to editing articles so still learning the ropes! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tay.sauer (talk • contribs) 10:25, December 16, 2024 (UTC)
- I have no objection to including relevant, up-to-date rankings in the article. But they should be described in neutral language and with accuracy, including the year of the ranking.
- And I strongly recommend that you restrict most or all of your editing about Ursuline to the article's Talk page given your employment and your specific role at the college. ElKevbo (talk) 15:28, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
- Will do, thank you so much for letting me know! Tay.sauer Tay.sauer (talk) 15:44, 16 December 2024 (UTC)
USNA DGA
Not sure what you have against USNA distinguished graduates. "Unnecessary detail" isn't a reason for deletion: https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Content_removal#Reasons_for_content_removal — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomhubbard (talk • contribs) 00:07, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
- You may find it helpful to review our general policy on what Misplaced Pages is not and our specific guidance on what we typically include in articles about colleges and universities. In general, we try to aim for articles that cover the most important information about an institution without delving into a lot of detail about any particular aspect unless that detail is critical e.g., precise size of endowment, year of founding, number of students enrolled. A detailed listing of alumni who receive a particular award from the institution doesn't seem to be the kind of critical information we should include in an encyclopedia article.
- You're welcome to open a discussion in the article's Talk page to see if other editors have different opinions! ElKevbo (talk) 02:40, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
