Did my best to sort out the confusing, but notable history of this University. I also added a few mini-comments about famous alumni who attended the school in early years but were key figures in American history. -- Bobak 19:06, 9 May 2006 (UTC)


In the part regarding the Greek life, I think there is not enough clarity regarding the "Animal House" comment. While it may have had a reputation as being a wild school at one time, I think this should have been phrased in a different manner.

It's copied and pasted verbatim from Transylvania's website.

I don't see any text from here on the official website. Can you provide a link please? -Will Beback 05:29, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Censorship controversy

Can we get some dialog going on the censorship controversy? I don't know enough about it to know if it belongs or if it doesn't, but I'm tired of seeing it added and deleted with no discussion. Please, someone enlighten us so we can make an intelligent decision and put this thing to rest! Acdixon 15:52, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mascot

Why are they not the Vampires? --BDD 08:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Probably not a serious question, but the college precedes Dracula by over 100 years. (1780 vs. 1897) 67.141.53.85 20:23, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] History

I see the history section ends in 1908. Can anyone find some significant events that have occured in the last 99 years? ·:· Will Beback ·:· 19:53, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
