[edit] Cleanup tag

I placed the cleanup tag on this article because it reads like an ad or a brochure. The "we are" and "you can" statements need to be edited – it should be about the university itself. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style for more, and you can also reference other university sites, such as the University of Miami entry. There's more content aobut Albizu himself in the university's article than there is about the university, and there's something wrong with that. Perhaps he should have a separate entry of his own.

[edit] Should it be scraped clean and started anew?

The article reads like an ad and seems to be a copyvio. There is no reason to include a large section of the founder, who appears to be "famous" for establishing the institution in Puerto Rico. Other editors: is this the {{db-spam}} material that it seems to me? If no one responds in the next few days, I'll simply tag it and leave it to an admin, but I'd like to hear from others about this.

• Also, I moved the section of the founder to below in case someone thinks it's salvageable as a stand-alone article. Note that it has no references whatsoever. B.Wind 19:29, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
