[edit] Article Cleanup
This article needs to be cleaned up. The traditions section could easily be compressed into a single or double paragraph section, trivia is discouraged in wiki articles, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by GuidedByPavement (talk • contribs) 00:10, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Alumni
Technically, the following people are not "alumni" either, although it is noteworthy that they attended PDS:
- the Menendez brothers
- Trey Anastasio

- See Alumnus for the definition showing that it means "former student", not "graduate". Alansohn 21:44, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Clubs
I love the tradition & history edits. Very amusing. 1/23/06
Patrick Kerney is in the Athletic Hall of Fame of Princeton Day School - isn't that enough criteria for an alum? Also Chris Conley, lead singer of Saves the Day did go to Princeton Day School but I'm not sure how to document it - I have the yearbook from the year he graduated it and I have his graduation speech but I'm not sure how to present this evidence. (I'm a student at Princeton Day School) --User:LaxPlayer21 8 March 2006
Patrick Kerney is not an alumnus of the school, he graduated from the Taft School in New England-thats where he played his high school football. Kerney attended Princeton Day for a while but is not a alum. --User:Wangster 3 March 2006
An alumnus is a person, especially a boy or man, who has attended or is a graduate of an educational institution. --GuidedByPavement 19:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
I made this revert due to lack of sources for the added alums. Normally, I would wait for citations, but given the quality of recent edits by the same anon ip [1], I want to see to proof of any claims upfront. I have found some Goolge associations of the names with the school, but no proof they are students. --Rob 00:55, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
He is indeed an alum, even if he did not graduate. See above section. --Dool325 01:06, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Pdslogo.jpg
Image:Pdslogo.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 ensure 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
