Colleges and Schools of the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
I wanted to bring up the informality of the University of Illinois school and college page titles (see the list below) that favor the styling of "UIUC College/School of ______." While I know UIUC is a term often used by students as a shorthand, I don't know how well it is known outside of the campus as a reference for the Urbana-Champaign campus. Most people I know call it the "U of I" or "Illinois" or just "University of Illinois" as it's the flagship. I want to move all these pages to prefer "University of Illinois College/School of _____" as is the style of the page for the University of Illinois School of Architecture and University of Illinois College of Law. Grainger, Gies, and Carle are distinguishable by their names. But the schools and colleges listed below are vague enough to need specificity.


 * UIUC College of Agriculture, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences --> University of Illinois College of Agriculture, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences (New Mexico State has a college of the same name)
 * UIUC College of Education --> University of Illinois College of Education (Many with the same name)
 * UIUC College of Fine and Applied Arts --> University of Illinois College of Fine and Applied Arts (Appalachian State has a college of the same name)
 * UIUC School of Labor and Employment Relations --> University of Illinois School of Labor and Employment Relations (Penn State has a college of the same name)
 * UIUC College of Liberal Arts and Sciences --> University of Illinois College of Liberal Arts and Sciences (Many with the same name)
 * UIUC School of Information Sciences --> University of Illinois School of Information Sciences (Many with the same name)
 * UIUC School of Social Work --> University of Illinois School of Social Work (Many with the same name)
 * UIUC College of Veterinary Medicine --> University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine (many with the same name, also terribly in need of work)

The College of Media is the only college with such a name in the country and already carries an article title without "University of Illinois."

I run into issue with the College of Applied Health Sciences because the Chicago campus has an identically named school so could get confusing just saying "University of Illinois," though the Chicago campus's college lacks a Wikipedia page.

What do y'all think of this format? Should I tweak it/is there an official page for government official page formatting somewhere on Wikipedia?

Project 500 at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign
I'm Joel Steinfeldt, and I work as an editor and policy analyst for Public Affairs at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I'd like to humbly suggest that the following information be considered for inclusion on the Project 500 stub page. I'd also like to suggest that external links to information about Project 500 be included, University Archives and Project 500: Black Power at Illinois. I'm posting this suggestion on this talk page rather than directly editing the Project 500 stub [|to avoid conflict-of-interest editing]. The following information reflects my attempts to follow Wikipedia guidelines for verifiable sources and all proper procedures under the Wikipedia guidelines, which tell you to immediately inform the Wikipedian community that while you've been online via fiber optics since 1994 (thank you, U.S. taxpayers, for the grant) you are a [|newbie]. While I've spent half the day reading Wikipedia entries about policies and practices for ethical use of Wikipedia, I'm very happy to be corrected if there is something I have missed. Please share your knowledge and experience with me.

“Project 500”, the Special Educational Opportunities Program (SEOP)

At the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, students, faculty and staff worked for “Project 500” to recruit more African-American undergraduates (Eisenman 1968, 13); scholars trace “the origins of race-based admissions in higher education to ... a time of political upheaval” (Lipson 2011, 133).

With the passing of the Affirmative Action legislation and the assassination of King, students demanded more effective recruitment efforts and better support to African American students. Project 500 was borne of these efforts, with the initial purpose of increasing enrollment of black students by matriculating a cohort of 500 in the fall of 1968 (Zerai 2016).

According to Joy Ann Williamson (2003: 64), "By early 1968, the university was in the process of implementing a program to allow approximately two hundred Black high school seniors to enroll for the 1968-69 academic year, more than doubling the average number of Black freshmen in recent classes”.

"In its statements to the public in 1968, the university focused on rectifying current discrimination and the worth of a diverse student body for the entire campus. Further, the university carefully explained that SEOP (the official name of Project 500) was predicated on economic disadvantage rather than race and that African Americans would dominate the program only because their economic situation was worse than any other group’s. However, public perception was the SEOP was for Black students only – a misperception that would plague the program from its outset" (2003: 66).

“At the end of registration, approximately 1,300 students had applied to participate in SEOP. Predicting that only two-thirds of high school seniors to whom it extended offers would actually register, the university approved 768 students for admission. However, the university misjudged. Almost three-quarters of those admitted, 565 students, registered. SEOP students constituted approximately 10 percent of the incoming freshman class – a goal the university had not planned to reach until four years later” (2003: 68).

“True to the university’s definition of disadvantaged, not all SEOP students were Black. A small number of white and Puerto Rican students enrolled through the program and constituted approximately 5 percent of SEOP” (2003: 68-69).

According to official University of Illinois records, the Division of Management Information provides the following frozen Fall 1968 student data yields the following: •	1968, “New freshmen” only:  446 African American, 36 Latina/Latino (482 total) •	1968, “New freshmen” and “new transfers”:  557 African American, 64 Latino (621 total). •	1968, Freshmen only (not necessarily new):  508 African American, 48 Latino (556 total).

“When results of Project 500 fell short of expectations, 252 students were arrested during protests in the fall of 1968. Clarence Shelley is well known for his support of African American students and his work with Project 500. He served as the director of the Special Educational Opportunities Program and through the years was appointed to several administrative posts, including special assistant to the chancellor.” (Zerai 2016) “The increase in African American undergraduates from 1% in 1967 to 4% by 1970 resulted from the Project 500 initiative and the pressure applied by protesting students to garner more resources for the program. African Americans comprised 3% to 4% of the U of I student population in the 1970s and 1980s, with an increase to a stable 6% from 1990 until 2008. The current proportion of African American students at the University of Illinois is still only” (Zerai 2016) 6%--counting students who identify as multiracial or Latina/Latino and African American or Black, or 5%--when not counting students who identify as multiracial. See table below for details.

Project-independent quality assessments
Quality assessments by Wikipedia editors rate articles in terms of completeness, organization, prose quality, sourcing, etc. Most wikiprojects follow the general guidelines at Content assessment, but some have specialized assessment guidelines. A recent Village pump proposal was approved and has been implemented to add a class parameter to WikiProject banner shell, which can display a general quality assessment for an article, and to let project banner templates "inherit" this assessment.

No action is required if your wikiproject follows the standard assessment approach. Over time, quality assessments will be migrated up to WikiProject banner shell, and your project banner will automatically "inherit" any changes to the general assessments for the purpose of assigning categories.

However, if your project has decided to "opt out" and follow a non-standard quality assessment approach, all you have to do is modify your wikiproject banner template to pass WPBannerMeta a new custom parameter. If this is done, changes to the general quality assessment will be ignored, and your project-level assessment will be displayed and used to create categories, as at present.

CME Group Request
Hello! I recently posted a request to the CME Group Talk page and I'm hoping an experienced editor from this WikiProject can take a look at it. Last month an editor who has since been suspended made some rather substantial edits to the article, including cutting out the entire Mergers and acquisitions section. I think the intent here was a good one, as the article did feel bloated. But the end result is that there's now considerable confusion throughout the text about the distinction between CME Group and Chicago Mercantile Exchange.

As such, I put together a proposal that would correct this issue by splitting claims about contemporary operations into a new Operations section and putting historical claims into a restored (but streamlined) Mergers and acquisitions section. I also have a few other minor suggestions in the proposal that address the same core issue.

I have a conflict of interest as I work for CME Group, so I won't be making these changes myself. I am hoping, though, that editors can review what I've put together and provide feedback or simply implement these changes if they seem like an improvement. Lbischel (talk) 18:48, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
