John Jay Article
[edit]Hey, I don't know how to leave a signature so sorry about that but saw your edit. Those were college majors (have provided a link to the correct source), I don't know if it's against WP policy to list the majors the college offers (if it does, please feel free to let me know or undo it and I apologize) but wanted to give you the heads up. Anyway, it is dedicated to Criminal Justice, hence the college's name (John Jay College of Criminal Justice). Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.41.108.33 (talk • contribs) 22:16, November 4, 2021 (UTC)

Skidmore College
[edit]This edit is screaming COI to me, especially the removal of "uncited" content which is actually sourced. I have temporary acc. IP viewer permissions, and the most I can say is that the geolocation is the same rough area Skidmore is in, but not on their actual network. wizzito | say hello! 02:08, 22 July 2026 (UTC)
- Yeah, I saw that earlier today and I thought about restoring the information about the hack. But I think that there is a reasonable argument to be made that hacks and breaches have become so common that they may not warrant inclusion in many cases, especially if there weren't lasting impacts (similar to how I think about lawsuits).
