Was New Orleans lawyer, Pereguine 'Perry' Snowden Warfield of Georgetown, D.C., an 1830's Georgetown College graduate, and of it's law school? His father was a Georgetown, D.C., physician. James A. Miller, Jr., 4978 N. Hampton Dr., Southport, N.C. 28461. I'm attempting the learn the name of his daughter, Mrs. Lee, of 1904 Summit, Miss.; and daughter Mrs. Hosmer, of 1904 St. Joseph, La. Where was Perry buried? Supposedly he died middle aged; his wife Mrs. Martha Bell Nixon Warfield, died Biloxi, Miss., 1904. My aunt has Perry's 1830's Georgetown College poetry practice book, and flute.
wasn't Mutombo also a diplomatic???

[edit] Undergraduates-ONLY section?
I've been noticing that a lot of schools have been mixing in their graduate school alumni with their undergrad alums, which is a good trick, since there is usually one graduate degree granting program that has a lot of famous people (e.g., Wash U's med school, U of R's music school, and in Gtown's case, its foreign service school). The whole point of an alumnus list is to gauge character through its past, through the record of its educational achievement in the long term. If you mix very different schools and different kinds of education, then you ruin the list and hide the true character. Institutions should only do this if they have something to hide. It is much more useful, fair, and genuinely informative to have a separate list of undergraduate notables, perhaps on a separate page. I am seriously thinking about building such a page whenever I run into an institution with a mixed list. Ronaldloui 23:56, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
- I believe the organizing factor in this article is by their profession, and not by what school they attended. To change it would be quite a job, but good luck to you. Know that the MSB and SFS have both undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as joint degrees, so there may be those who go on both undergrad and grad lists. A number of the individual school articles additionally do also have lists of their most notable alumni.--Patrick Ѻ 17:09, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Ph pres arroyo.jpg
Image:Ph pres arroyo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
