No assertion of Notability besides being a Vice President of a branch at Sun. &eta;oian  &Dagger;orever &eta;ew &Dagger;rontiers  06:15, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. The article says that Sproull is a member of the National Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Either of these would be enough to prove notability. In fact, a project to write articles about every member of each academy would be worthwhile. – Eastmain (talk • contribs) 06:35, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I would dispute that every single member would deserve an article solely based on being a member. Notability is after all not contagious. Neither of those statements give any reason as to what they are notable for, besides a dubious notability position. There are many, many members of the Academy of Engineering. Maybe mention in a list. &eta;oian   &Dagger;orever &eta;ew &Dagger;rontiers  06:39, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
