Talk:Santa Monica College

NPOV issues
I don't doubt SMC is a good school, at least possibly the best community in California. However, this article consisted only of positive content about SMC and made me feel like there is information suspression and hence not NPOV... Samuel Curtis 18:25, 23 May 2006 (UTC)


 * A vague sense of something being wrong is NOT sufficient grounds for a POV tag. You need to name something concrete that can actually be fixed or discussed. --Calton | Talk 20:14, 23 May 2006 (UTC)


 * I agree there might be some astroturfing to promote the college's sports programs, but it requires work on your part to improve upon the article. Elryacko (talk) 23:15, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Santa Monica College is just a run of the mill junior college. Nothing special about it except that it's near the beach and a few celebrities went to school their because it's near Hollywood.

Even if it is the best junior college in California, that's not saying much. Above the junior colleges is the Cal. State system, which is a really mediocre public university system.

The only good colleges in California are either private or the UC system...70.237.109.151 21:03, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Seems like sourcing on the transfer rate is a bit dated. Source #3 is dead and source #2 is from '07. 98.182.22.36 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 10:12, 21 June 2014 (UTC)

Currently the early "history" is only one sentence long. What were the circumstances of its founding? When I went there is was called Santa Monica City College. At that time, and I would imagine now as well, it was an important community recource. Source materials for writing a richer historical description are certainly available. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.39.94.31 (talk) 02:23, 27 November 2016 (UTC)

Merge proposal: The Corsair (Santa Monica College newspaper) to here
The newspaper doesn't meet WP:N independently, but could be a worthwhile section here. Boleyn (talk) 14:58, 17 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Support. Thank you for looking for a place for this content @Boleyn. If someone can build it out someday, great, but for now, this looks like the right thing to do. jengod (talk) 17:19, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Support - This is a good idea. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:45, 12 December 2023 (UTC)


 * I will now merge this. Boleyn (talk) 16:32, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
