[edit] Assessment

I have assessed this article for the Wiki Schools Project to help in future improvement. What is needed to improve is as follows: This articles needs to be expanded so it is fully referenced and covers more topics such as the layout of the campuses, history, and what the college has to offer in terms of courses. The picture should also be integrated into an infobox. Camaron1 | Chris 13:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:College of Law Logo.gif

Image:College of Law Logo.gif 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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 22:17, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First private degree-awarding institution?

While the College claims to have become the first private institution in the UK to be awarded degree-conferring powers, I was under the strong impression that the University of Buckingham got there first - by some thirty years.

Unfortunately Wiki's own page on Buckingham doesn't go into much detail about their corporate status or financial means, so the College's claim could be correct.

In the meantime I suggest that instead of asserting this claim as fact, the entry should just read that the College claims they are the first, as they do.
