[edit] Listing Alumni, Faculty, and Presidents
For listings of Alumni, Faculty, and Presidents, we are using category listings instead of raw listing of people. This way, we can link to a category and get a full alphabetized listing.
For example, the Alumni category (Category:Emerson College Alumni) is a list of alumni.
For people without wiki entries yet, we'll list them on here. Once someone gets around to making Wikis for them, put the proper category in and remove their listing on the Emerson College page.
To add the Alumni category to a wiki entry:
[[Category:Emerson College Alumni | Lastname, Firstname]]
For Faculty (past and present):
[[Category:Emerson College Faculty | Lastname, Firstname]]
For Presidents (past and present):
[[Category:Emerson College Presidents | Lastname, Fristname]]
Make sure to replace Lastname, Firstname with the name of the person. For example: Emerson, Charles Wesley.

[edit] Policy on listing individuals
In the past, we had some issues of a never-ending list of alumni on this article page. The Category pages fixed this issue. It's OK to link people key in the history of the College itself, but starting a list negates the purpose of the category pages. Seg 04:48, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Labor Dispute
I didn't touch this subject since I'm not in a position to know the history of the dispute. I do want to remind the people who take on this subject that the nature of Wikipedia is to be neutral and historic. Please cite your sources. If in doubt, put it in this discussion thread first for review. Seg 01:46, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] The Page
Is there another link for Women In Motion? I just get a wonky folder page.

[edit] Bad Link: Jonathan Miller
Jonathan Miller, a recently appointed member of the board, is the CEO of AOL Time Warner. However, the article linked is for a different Jon Miller. 69.168.95.125]] 19:54:25, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
Made the change to link to Jonathan Miller (America Online). This link is refered to from the AOL page itself. Seg 18:30:34, 2005-08-10 (UTC)
[edit] Walker and Tufte buildings
Article says about the Walker building, "the fifth and sixth floors are connected to the fourth and fifth floors of the Tufte building," and about the Tufte uilding, "the fifth and sixth floors of the building are connected to the fourth and fifth floors of the Walker Building." I doubt that both are true. 65.96.128.95 18:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ad vs. Perspectives
I just removed a link under external links that linked to a college guide. However, the page was trying to sell a publication, rather than having any form of perspective about the college. Therefor the link is irrelevant and only an advertisement. I want to make it clear that it's not censoring opinions, but the link does not fit to the standards of Wikipedia.

[edit] Degree Types
Someone keeps changing some of the degree types to Bachelor of Science in Speech, yet the offical department websites and course cataloge list them as Bachelor of Science (no speech). Please check your sources before changing them! Seg 01:23, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
