Thanks for your contribution to Brother Rice High School (Chicago), but we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so please keep your edits factual and NPOV. Some readers looking for a serious article might not find them amusing. Remember, millions of people read Wikipedia, so we have to take what we do a bit seriously here. If you'd like to experiment with editing, use the Sandbox to get started. I hope you can help us out! - CobaltBlueTony 21:02, 27 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Words like "prestigious" are an opinion; prestige is a matter of perception. Making specific mention of one group of the entire diverse population looks and feels out of place -- as if you have some motivation for pointing it out.  Wikipedia's neutral point-of-view policy mentions placing undue weight on certain topics and issues, and in the broad topic of this particular school, mentioning a small aspect of student life that has no other significance than that is simply is a fact is peculiar enough for it to be removed.  It is as significant as stating that the principal drives a Buick, or that some of the students bleach their hair, or dislike a rival school.  There must be at least some notariety to a singled-out aspect for it to be worth mentioning, and this would need to be supported by some sort of verifiable source that highlights the notable nature of the aspect.


 * Is that too wordy? Please continue to discuss if you don't understand, or have another viewpoint.
