Sri Siddhartha Institute of Business Management

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This article asserts that Sri Siddhartha Institute of Business Management is affiliated to Tumkur University. A search within that University's website yields only (at page 80 in the pdf file) a mention of this purported Business School offering a Master of Social Work, a degree that would appears to me rather different from degrees that would ordinarily awarded by a business school.

Turning to http://ssibm.edu.in: it appears to me that is a business, albeit one run by a religious organization. This business appears to fail the WP:CORPDEPTH test for inclusion as a Wikipedia article. Shirt58 (talk) 11:07, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - individual institutes are not considered automatically notable; alternately merge. Bearian (talk) 18:01, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
 * This is a misunderstanding of its status. In India, affiliated colleges are entirely separate institutions, not sub-divisions of the university to which they are affiliated. This is not an institute of Tumkur University as we in the West would understand it; it is an independent college that happens to be affiliated to Tumkur University. Much the same as the colleges of the University of London used to be. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:42, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
