[edit] Verifying Some Information

This page lists Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak (founders of Apple Computer) as De Anza College alumni, but there is no mention of this in the biographical articles on them. Jobs attended Reed College but did not graduate; Wozniak attended UC Berkeley, dropped out, then returned and finished later. Miahavero 04:16, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

According to the article, the Flint Center was home to the San Jose Spiders of the (now defunct) NWBL. This is hard to verify, since the NWBL no longer exists, but it seems unlikely. The Flint Center is an auditorium/concert hall. The team probably played at the De Anza gymnasium. Miahavero 04:22, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

A citation has been added re: Steve Wozniak attending De Anza. However so far no one has been able to find a citation for the claim Steve Jobs attended as well. Someone added a citation of http://www.buzzle.com/editorials/4-26-2005-69111.asp but this does not mention De Anza, only Reed. I don't think Jobs *did* go to De Anza. At what point do we just remove that line? Awk (talk) 03:51, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't have any sources to disprove it, but I'm fairly certain Steve Jobs didn't attend De Anza. 75.36.162.225 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 05:53, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
