Datedness?
How in-depth can this get without suffering from dated-ness? I fear putting up a list of majors or anything specific because of how fast it can all change..—Preceding unsigned comment added by Guitarninja (talk • contribs) 19:12, August 3, 2005
Vanity Edits
I just wanted to note that anyone editing this article should probably keep an eye for for vanity edits to it. If the article was more substantial, I would assume it would be less prone to this problem. --Haemo 22:59, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Willing to help
Hello I work on the Western Oregon Web site, helped create their online historical site and take photgraphs for university release. My job has been both in Computing Services and the PR office. I have access to many historical books and can propably get various campus images and printed materials released for public use (our model release forms may not allow public distribution or photos with identifiable people). I also know where to find both the university and OUS news release and our PR office has a service to collect news stories across the state. If anybody needs help tracking down sources please let me know, if I can not directly help, I may be able to point you in the correct direction. Our library has a fairly good selection of material related to this area in general. Please note: I will not provide commentary or opinions on the university, because of both my job responsibility and possible conflict of interest. You may contact me through this forum ,or since this is part of my job, my university email gilberts(at)wou.edu is also fine. Moonpoint —Preceding comment was added at 19:02, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
