[edit] Architecture

Ormond College has multiple buildings named after some of the masters. Some of the buildings are supposedly severe fire hazards - Main Building, home to many seniors is the second most flammable building in the Southern Hemisphere, being insulated entirely with hay. However, nothing can be done as these buildings are heritage listed. Fat Red 05:09, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

This suggests I have written this passage. Actually, I cut it and pasted it on the talk page to be reinstated if there was a citation available.Fat Red (talk) 23:52, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Alumni list

I have removed David Crawford because it is quite unclear. It links to a disambiguation page that contains David Crawford (director) who is Australian but the article does not mention Ormond. This list needs serious work by someone who knows the College and has access to records of alumni. All redlinks should be properly cited by evidence that the person is an alumni, or the name should be removed. The blue links should point to articles that demonstrate with sources that the persons concerned are alumni. --Bduke (talk) 23:02, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
