 * Keep as a degree-awarding tertiary institution per longstanding precedent and consensus. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:52, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Per the RfC that Necrothesp so delightful chooses to ignore. And so clearly states that SCHOOLOUTCOMES is not a relevant argument. The Banner talk 14:35, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry? Did the RfC suddenly mutate from a discussion about secondary schools to one about tertiary institutions? I hadn't realised that it was in fact secretly about all educational institutions! Maybe you'd care to explain to all of us where it says this? Because my reading is that it refers to secondary schools only. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:36, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep Colleges and universities are generally notable. The RfC cited only applies to secondary institutions, not tertiary ones. Smartyllama (talk) 17:49, 2 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. Cites no third-party sources = fails WP:V and WP:N. Colleges are no exception to verifiability.  Sandstein   07:35, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Clearly doesn't fail WP:V: it's listed on a government website and I can see it right there on Google streetview, so I disagree that its existence can not verified.--Pontificalibus 09:19, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep the RfC was only about secondary schools. Degree granting institutions, even more so than secondary schools, are all but guaranteed to meet the GNG, which means per WP:NPOSSIBLE, we keep them. TonyBallioni (talk) 14:52, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep government sources and past consensus to keep tertiary institutions Atlantic306 (talk) 18:03, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - no sources indicate that this is in any way notable. The info that is in the article isn't even on the school's web site. I'm also not sure that this is just a college. The students in these photos look awfully young. [] Also, the body of the article seems to be a cut and paste from somewhere - so maybe COPYVIO.TimTempleton (talk) (cont)  23:17, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Killiondude (talk) 23:27, 3 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. We essentially always do keep colleges, as a plain statement of fact. We treat them as if they were all notable. The RfC on schooloutcomes did not even discus colleges or other tertiary institutions, so I do not know why people are citing it. Using it here is misrepresenting it--the words tertiary does not appear, and the word college, only in the context that information about schools can be found in college libraries.  (That said, the article needs proper expansion, now that the promotionalism has been removed).   DGG ( talk ) 11:33, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. explains it best, where  continues to falsely represent the 'non'-consensus of the RfC he frequently cites. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:31, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Brilliant, due to lack of content-related arguments, you just attack the messenger. Very, very old trick. The Banner talk 00:48, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * By now I hope it is clear    that Kudpung and I and others are rejecting not you, but your arguments.  Your arguments limit the question of notability  to the GNG,  but   at WP we make our own rules, and can make whatever exceptions to the notability  guideline will benefit the encyclopedia, not just for individual articles, but for   subjects.   WP is better off if we make an exception to the GNG in this topic area--in order to avoid endless disagreements with each other,  and the consequent tendency  to get over-personal.

 * Keep As I said here, some people who are eager to delete all school articles are now so blind that any school AfD they will summarily !vote delete without even reading the article to know what kind of school they are actually dealing with whether it is the secondary school or not. It is general consensus (whether written sonewhere or not) that all higher institutions that awards degrees are generally notable. Dvelopment of particular varsity/college article is proportional to number of editors interested and able to find sources for it.–Ammarpad (talk) 11:10, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep per DGG Eddie891 Talk Work 18:12, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
