Talk:Wilkes University

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Wilkes has the premier Education Department in Northeastern Pennsylvania Teacher Education Department." -- I am deleting this line as this is as "premier Education Department" is not objective. I have seen similar sentences appear on more than one occasion in the past. Please back this up with a reference if you feel it should be in the article.Jrmski 02:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Todo

  • Photo + details of the purchase of the 10 East South Street apartment building.

Add additional noteworthy events: Academic

  • Max Rosenn Lecture (Annual)
  • Kirby Lecture (business)

Any Non-Academic Possibilities? Jrmski 02:36, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clubs

It is ridiculous to list one club. Several other clubs had been listed and unnecessarily deleted. Selective editing of the entries could have salvaged useful content. A fuller list of clubs can be found at www.wilkes.edu -> Campus Life -> Clubs & Organizations. ManthonyK

Agreed. Adding these additions back in. But these will require some cleanup. Jrmski 02:14, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other

Potentially useful additions:

  • proximity to several other Northeast PA Schools
  • Urban Studies center located in the Innovation Center
  • Transitioning to an (the first?) (almost) all-macintosh computer campus
  • Notable benefactor: Jay S. Sidhu
  • Master plan summary
  • Mentoring program
  • Large commuter population
