Talk:California Lutheran University/Archive 1

Beach picture
Is the picture of a beach really relevant to this article?

Yes

Alumna Fontaine
The official Miss California website lists Ms. Fontaine's (in the article's list of notable alumni) as having the first name "Jacquelynne", not "Jacquelyn". Anyone have an authoritative answer? I'm rather tempted to trust the Miss California page. Joshua McGee (talk) 03:49, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Scandanavian Festival
The Scandanavian Festival has been hosted at Cal Lutheran for many years. It would be nice to mention this in the article. I'm sure there are news links. (ChocoCereal (talk) 05:39, 29 October 2008 (UTC))

Lots of Disclosure
I started editing this article when I was doing research about CLU to decide whether to pursue a job with them. Well, I was just hired. I am now CLU's Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning. Editing Wikipedia is my current *darling* as an authentic, pedagogically sound, and exciting edtech class component. In order to advocate and train instructors at the university, I need to practice my own editing skills. My goal is to update this article and submit it for peer review. The reason I'm choosing this article is a) I'm learning about the university a ton anyway, and now have access to books about the university from their library (not definitely an objective source, but possibly better than the CLU websites) and b) I want to pilot test the Wikipedia assignment in a class I'll be teaching on PR this summer. I want the students to edit a Wikipedia article (possibly the PR one), and engage them in talking about the ethics of PR professionals editing Wikipedia pages--past scandals; arguments for conscientious, objective, and accurate edits by professionals; current websites violating community standards by selling edits... I thought showing them my own objective edits compared to the old article would be an effective demonstration/discussion entry point.

Why the spiel? I wanted to be totally up front about what I was doing, and why. I appreciate and will consider any feedback, advice, arguments for or against what I'm doing...I'm new to the community, and really want to do right by it.

Thanks! Drdemartino (talk) 04:14, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey there! I just saw this. I will post at WP:COIN to draw in some people to comment. I don't see a problem, as long as you follow WP:COI, which states (in a nutshell) "Do not edit Wikipedia to promote your own interests, or those of other individuals or of organizations, including employers. Do not write about these things unless you are certain that a neutral editor would agree that your edits improve Wikipedia." So if you're uncertain about anything, you can always draft it and put it on the talk page. Best. Biosthmors (talk) 20:35, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm going ahead and editing. I will work hard to be objective. As mentioned, I am a novice editor, so forgive any 'grammar' mistakes.Drdemartino (talk) 03:01, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

history
In 1954, a committee was first formed jointly by the American Lutheran Church and the Lutheran Church in America (These two organizations much later joined with another organization to become the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.) to plan a Lutheran college in California. "

the ALC (at least not the big one) and LCA did not exist in 1954. Skippypeanuts (talk) 23:02, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Regals Volleyball
See it that there is a section under athletics that is dedicated to the football team at Cal Lutheran, would it be beneficial to add a subsection for the womens volleyball team at Cal Lutheran, given they won the National Championship in 2015?

Leed Certified Building
Would it be beneficial to add a link explaining what an LEED certified building is exactly? HunterHunter Santana (talk) 07:05, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Current Wikilink is sufficient. This and much of the rest of the article need references that don't from the University itself. Fettlemap (talk) 15:26, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Multiple issues warning
Is the advertisement warning still applicable? I tried to remove biased language throughout (not that recently). Can this warning be reassessed and removed if appropriate? If it is not appropriate, I will edit more. Drdemartino (talk) 18:40, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
 * I am wondering about the same thing. Is the advertisement warning still applicable? I also tried removing biased text. TOLocal (talk) 04:27, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
