[edit] Cornelliana

FYI, Cornelliana has been listed as an Article for Deletion. --Xtreambar 00:42, 24 January 2007 (UTC) I like your edit!

I like your edit. SLY111 17:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Steve Weiss

Thanks for your edits. Are you also a Q&D? The only incorrect statement was that at the time of his election Steve was one of the youngest Trustees. There were at least six other trustees younger than him on the Board at that time. (Five students and Ezra Cornell '70)

[edit] Finishing Up Chairs

Do you have any info on:

  • Frank H. Hiscock 1917-39
  • Howard Edward Babcock 1940-47

They defy google. Thanks, Racepacket 00:23, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the Alumni News search link, and thanks for creating the table. However, the list which Kristin MacHenry sent me is missing 1899-1916. Under the University Bylaws, there must have been a Chair at that time, and I will research the point. I was surprised that I have met 8 of the 15 people on the list, which should be a flag that the list was incomplete. Racepacket 02:40, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Falkner and Boyce

Hi, Cornell 2010! I seem to be helping you fill up the Cornell musicians' section! Glad to see you are following up without much delay! I'll see if I can find any more.... Best wishes, Eebahgum 23:23, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Further to the above, I have tracked down this reference now included in the Falkner article, to the fact that he made a recording on acetate discs of Schumann's Dichterliebe for Cornell University during the 1950s. Do you know how one would set about finding out what became of this recording, and whether it still exists? I wonder if it has been transferred...? I suppose it must have been in his possession as one song from it was played on the 1991 BBC programme, but perhaps Cornell had a copy? I wonder whom one could ask. best wishes, Eebahgum 09:42, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

That's a fantastic reference!! Thankyou very much, I have updated the article to include your information. I have also ordered a copy of the biography by his daughter and will upgrade a bit when and if they send it to me... best wishes and many thanks for hyper-efficiency (!)

[edit] Little Help

Hi Cornell2010. I realize that you have made substantial contributions to the Q&D page, but I would really appreciate some support in building the Sphinx Head page. I have been working hard with another SHer (GoBigRed1865) to make the cite reliable and cite it appropriately. Any brotherly support would be really appreciated. Thanks. Cheers, Cornell1890 (talk) 18:22, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


Cornell 2010, I do think and hope that the page will survive deletion. I am going to go to the Kroch Library today and cite the additional alumni. I assume this is where your office is? Is it alright if I stop by and we chat in person? Cornell1890 (talk) 14:51, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Okay, I had you placed as a former Q&D president who now works there. Sorry my mistake. I would definitely appreciate some help as would GoBigRed1865 in updating the page and adding some more alumni and references. Though our membership has requested to keep the page fairly low profile overall. Thanks again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cornell1890 (talkcontribs) 16:42, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Yeah man again any help would definitely be appreciated. At the beginning of next semester i am going to start citting alumni from the Cornellian/Alumni News/. Also, if you want to consider changing your delete request to maybe a "keep" that would be huge. Thanks man. Cornell1890 (talk) 01:13, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi Cornell2010. I was wondering if you could provide me with that list of the 33 people that you said should be included on the list? Again any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Cornell1890 (talk) 03:27, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cornell Coaches!

Thanks for your help with the Cornell football coaches such as Alva E. Kelley (football coach)! I've been putting together stub articles on coaches hoping that fans just like you will jump in and improve them over time!--Paul McDonald (talk) 20:47, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey! Really appreciate the cleanup you're doing with the other coaches, too! Keep at it! Thank you so much!--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:45, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cornell Coaches

I missed the other "Warner". I already edited the template to use first initials, which is what is done on the other college coach templates. Sorry for the confusion. - Masonpatriot (talk) 16:24, 17 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] still willing to help?

Hey I was curious if you were still willing to help with that list of alumni (33 I believe) that you said could be added to the SH page .... Thanks Cornell1890 (talk) 17:48, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cornell Wikipedia Meetup?

I will be attending Reunion on June 6-8, and I thought we could organize a Wikipedia gathering. Perhaps immediately following the Quill and Dagger and Sphinx Head breakfasts on Sunday morning. Are you interested? Racepacket (talk) 23:12, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thank you for making sure the SH page stays clean.GoBigRed1865 (talk) 22:13, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

While we are grateful for your contributions to our page, they are in essence "fact corrections." The changes we have made to your page are just that: fact corrections. We do not mean to cause any trouble or hard feelings, we just want to maintain the integrity of Wikipedia pages by not putting false statements, speculated information, or information that cannot be documented. To us, the evidence is not solid enough, especially since the ceiling of Sage Chapel has Christian imagery, not Cornell imagery. While it may have been clever to adopt Christian imagery as the Society's first emblem, it does not mean that the picture represents the Society within in the context of a chapel.GoBigRed1865 (talk) 00:05, 13 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Charles C. Garside

Technically also Category:Cornell University alumni, since he was enrolled there before the First World War and mere attendance is the criterion for inclusion with alumni.
