Puff piece for a non-notable person. A BLP PROD was removed but no substantial, reliable sources were added. There's a minor award from the U of Central Michigan, and that's it; board members of such a university are not automatically notable.

 * Comment Yup... the "article" reads like a resume. However, news coverage from 1995 through 2010 would seem indicative that this article might be salvagable with a major rewrite.  Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 03:02, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment. I'm not quite finding the right kind of coverage to attempt a rewrite, but I will reserve judgement and see if anyone can work magic on it. Here's some sources I did find: Fences  &amp;  Windows  23:32, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Second relist rationale. The article is a BLP. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:02, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Following MichaelQSchmidt's cleanup, I think we can keep this. I think he just passes the GNG, and this isn't spammy now. Fences  &amp;  Windows  01:10, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks... and I appreciate your pointing the way to possibilities. I also believe as well, that with a very very careful eye out for return of spam or unverifiable information, it is now worth keeping.  Admittedly it was one of the more difficult articles to steam-clean... and if it were not for the long weekend, it might not have been done.   Schmidt,  MICHAEL Q. 01:14, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Damn you, MQS, you West-Coast inclusionist. My evil plan foiled again! To any passing admin: Nomination withdrawn. Drmies (talk) 01:20, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
