Talk:University of Delaware/Archives/2017

Size is classified as large, not medium
The current introduction says that this institution is "medium-sized" but the university is actually classified as a "large" institution. I happen to work at this university so I don't want to edit this article; can someone else please make this correction? Thanks! ElKevbo (talk) 11:36, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Description of Residence Life Controversy Unsupported by Cited Source
The current version of the paragraph describing the 2007 residence life education controversy is rife with inaccuracies that are not supported by the cited reference. Much of the material in the current section, including the very title ("orientation"), is not even mentioned in the cited source. In fact, it appears that the section was written by one or more people who were trying to write it in the worst possible light. Can someone - not me because I happen to work at UD - please edit this section so it's accurate and neutral?

I also recommend placing the two controversies into the history section. These incidents are, of course, part of the university's history and should be presented alongside the rest of the institution's history with appropriate context. ElKevbo (talk) 22:18, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

Biden Institute
This seems like it is going to be a major new priority of the new university president. I created a new section as a placeholder until we can get some further details (e.g., dedicated annual funding, integration with the School of Public Policy and Administration, research aims, etc.). Media reports may help to fill out the section a bit more. ~delbh 23:46, 29 May 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pruiz (talk • contribs)
