Page needs more work still but it's better than before. Can someone fix the athletics list at the bottom. Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.23.167.50 (talk) 03:08, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

For-profit?
What is the basis for the claim that Post is a for-profit university? The Carnegie Foundation calls it "not-for-profit" in its listings; there is nothing on its website that indicates it is a for-profit university; it has NCAA Division II Athletics - it is my understanding that only public and private-not-for-profit institutions can compete in NCAA competition - at the very least, I can think of no other examples of for-profit institutions competing in the NCAA; it was founded in 1890, which is very old for a for-profit institution. Thomas Samph, described here as the "CEO" of Post, is described on Post's own website as the "Chancellor" of the school. Basically, source this claim in a day or I am going to remove it. john k (talk) 16:58, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I found a source for the "for-profit" claim, but the situation still seems kind of anomalous -the Carnegie Foundation listing and perhaps its NCAA status seem at odds with the claim in the Republican-American article printed on the Post website. john k (talk) 17:05, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

A bit confusing
Can someone clarify or explain why there are two names to its former name? In the lead section it says "It was founded in 1890 as Post College." However in the body it says, "Post University was founded in 1890 as Matoon Shorthand School." 62icecreammachine (talk) 08:20, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
