Reviewer: Hello, I'm going to take this article as part of the July backlog drive. I should be done in a couple of days at most. Kimikel (talk · contribs) 23:16, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Verifiable[edit]

@PCN02WPS: Did the source spot check, will do the rest later. Some small issues but overall nothing disqualifying. Kimikel (talk) 21:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kimikel: these have been taken care of! PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kimikel Sounds good, no rush! PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 19:49, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]



Well-written[edit]

Nothing on a copyvio check.

Lead[edit]

  • "gained it" > gained the school
  • "There, he worked to distance..." > this sentence uses a "triple and", i would break it up however you see fit
  • "broadly favored" > which was broadly favored
  • "G.I. Bill as" > G.I. Bill, as
  • "resigned the presidency" > resigned from the presidency

Career[edit]

  • Is there anywhere you can link to endnote 6?
  • "it was not a drastic one" > I feel like this qualifier is kind of unnecessary; a reader can decide if a 20/30% decrease is drastic or not.
  • "getting back on track with" > realigning with
  • "effect—complete with 180 signatures—with" > replace tacks with commas
  • "But this shift" > However, this shift
  • "consequences:" > consequences, as
  • "By the end of his term in 1958, the school's enrollment had doubled, ultimately reaching 1,400 students" > it was 1,400 as of the time of his death, not by the end of his term. this sentence implies that it was 1,400 by the end of his term, i would reword this.

Personal life and death[edit]

  • Can [40] and [42] be archived? Neither are accessible
  • "remarried Nancy" > married Nancy
