[edit] Neutrality
While this article is very informative and well done, it does not present as neutral. Sentences like “The outstanding faculty and challenging curriculum cultivate within each student the knowledge and skills necessary for successful continuing education, sound personal values, and a commitment to service” sound more like material from a brochure and not a factual (which is not necessarily to say that the above quotation is untrue, but that it is not a verifiable representation of fact and as opposed to opinion) descriptor. It would be more appropriate to say that this is a stated aim of the school. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oniamien (talk • contribs) 01:16, January 27, 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Copyright Violations
The Overview and History section appears to be a copyright violation. The text appears to come for The Westminster Schools History page, http://www.westminster.net/main/aboutus/index.cfm?FuseAction=history. Until the copyright issues are cleared up, I am temporarily removing the Overview and History section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jdc8890 (talk • contribs) 00:34, February 3, 2006 (UTC)
[edit] House Cleaning
The school's endowment is mentioned twice in the openning of the article, there is no need to place it again in the Miscellania. The right hand table contains an "Alumni" spot, and someone filled in a number in the 8,XXX's... why? Westminister graduates that many students per decade--that figure puzzles me. While everyone who graduates from a school may go on to lead the best life that they can, I think that we need to keep "Notable Alumni" more... Notable. Someone filled in some NFL player and didn't bother to mention a team... years he played... anything. Skiendog (talk) 16:36, 18 April 2008 (UTC)
Now someone has added a college baseball player, this has got to stop. "Notable Alumni" need to be moe notable. Skiendog (talk) 17:52, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
