Wikipedia:WikiProject Dartmouth College

[edit] 

WikiProject Dartmouth College is a WikiProject which aims to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Dartmouth College.

Members should always ensure that articles are written from a neutral point of view — Dartmouth is sufficiently prestigious that there should be no need to resort to academic "boosterism".

Please help this project evolve by providing your own modifications, comments and suggestions. (Leave a message).

Thayer School of Engineering is up for GA, and Dartmouth Medical School is up for FA (link). Unfortunately, Dartmouth College was unable to appear on the Main Page on December 13, due to Georgetown University having appeared too recently. Dylan (talk)

Thayer School of Engineering passed GA. Dartmouth Medical School failed FA rather quickly, but in the meantime while it's revised, I think it may already meet GA criteria, so I nominated it for that. Tuck School of Business has been nominated to be featured on the Main Page on January 19, 2008, its 108th founding anniversary. Dylan (talk)

Tuck will appear on the Main Page on January 19! DMS is still undergoing improvement and is still a GA nominee. Dylan (talk)
