(Alliant International University)
The California School of Professional Psychology article should be merged with this one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chris ecorreo@yahoo.com (talk • contribs) 04:08, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

Founding date
The university seal appears to say "Founded MCMLII". That's 1952. Yet according to the article, Alliant's predecessor institutions were founded in 1968 and 1969. Am I missing something?

Balboa College, which later changed its name to United States International University, was founded in 1952. The California School of Professional Psychology was founded in 1969. When The Calfornia School of Professional Psychology and United States International University merged to form Alliant International University, the oldest founding date between the institutions was used in the university seal.76.201.170.177 (talk) 19:13, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Balboa College was founded in 1924 by Leland Stanford (not THE Leland Stanford however).

First Prescription?
From the article:
 * On February 18, 2005, the first civilian psychologist to write a drug prescription in the U.S. state of Louisiana was a CSPP graduate and current faculty member.

..Wait- is that saying that no psychologist outside the military ever wrote a drug prescription in Louisiana before 2005? Can that be true? Does that mean that prior to two years ago, only M.D.'s could write prescriptions in Louisiana for Prozac and the like? - Eric (talk) 08:55, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, for non military, only those with a MD could write prescription even for anti-depressants. There is a movement to allow licensed psychologists with a PhD or PsyD prescription privileges. To qualify Psychologists would have to undergo additional training. See APA.org for additional information.reagan 16:09, 11 January 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Reagan0005 (talk • contribs)

Fair use rationale for Image:Alliant Seal.jpg
Image:Alliant Seal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

California Western University?
California Western University redirects here, but there is no mention of it in the article. An explanation of the history is warranted. —  crism ( talk )  03:29, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

Copyvio
I have linked the main culprit on the template, but there are others like which have been used. Laura Jamieson (talk) 07:47, 28 June 2016 (UTC)
 * An IP added that content back at the end of March and there has only been minor copyedits since. I've reverted to just before that. The main problem was a replacement of the history section with a copyrighted source, and the notable faculty section was a copypaste of their respective Wikipedia leads without attribution. Note that the BAPCA link above is a mirror source of Carl Rogers. Fuebaey (talk) 18:03, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I've gone back and looked at archived snapshots to see if any residual pasting occurred. The university's website changed between March 16 and March 23, the latter the day this article drastically changed. As such, I'm uncertain to whether the IP copied from them or vice versa. But to be on the safe side, I've omitted the addition.
 * As a side note, I'm pretty sure their website copied their faculty section from Wikipedia without attribution. Fuebaey (talk) 18:31, 29 June 2016 (UTC)

Request edit on 28 September 2018
Can someone perform an audit or further articulate exactly what (as in the exact location of where the content needs to be edited) needs to be done to remove the following notices: This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages) This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (February 2016) This article relies too much on references to primary sources. (July 2007) This article needs to be updated. (February 2016)

I've made edit's to address these but it looks like these edits are not enough to have these notices removed. --Freddie at the frank agency (talk) 22:01, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

 * The editor is first asked to make contact with the editor who placed 2 of the templates, in this case, to inquire from them whether or not they believe that the article merits removal of the templates.
 * The third template is much older, being placed originally in 2007. Nevertheless, I would suggest contacting the administrator who added that template, Athaenara. I'm sure that the effort made to contact them 11 years after the fact will be—if not remembered—then at least appreciated, and the COI editor is urged to make contact as a courtesy. Of course, in the event that neither of these editors responds (or else they feel comfortable with others making these changes for them) please reopen the request.


 * I would just remove the "more footnotes" and "primary sources" templates. The first is obviously not true; there are no sources listed in the article that are not footnoted. The second doesn't appear to be true any more. And I would remove "update" because whoever placed it didn't bother to leave a message on the talk page saying what needs to be updated. If we don't know what the problem is, we can't fix it. Kendall-K1 (talk) 14:32, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Can I remove the "more footnotes" and "primary sources" templates or can someone have them removed for me? --Freddie at the frank agency (talk) 15:04, 2 October 2018 (UTC)
