Please see my revisions and notation. Apart from the fact that the text is copyrighted, you cannot simply paste tons of text from a web site and call it an article. Viva-Verdi 15:25, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


As the acting Historian for Ruth Eckerd Hall, I was asked to update the Hall's history for our website and for Wikipedia. All the information provided was approved by Ruth Eckerd Hall's President & CEO. (Added by User talk:Tilderman we presume??) Use 4 tildes to "sign" your comments.
Regardless, my comment still stands. A mass of dates and data does not an article make, and certainly this kind of detail is far more than a typical reader is likely to want or need. We'll see what other editors have to say. Viva-Verdi 23:13, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
I think the first part and the history section should definitely remain. As far as what to do with the timeline, that's up for debate. Perhaps a condensed version of truly important dates.... (RossF18 14:20, 9 July 2007 (UTC))

Nothing wrong with the intro of the article because I re-wrote it to remove the list-of-dates quality of he original. I'm glad that there are now 2 editors in agreement that the rest of it cannot stand as written.

Luckilly,maybe, no one has simply removed the entire section given that it is simply copied from a web site..... Viva-Verdi 16:15, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
