Article needs fleshing out
[edit]Does anyone know about the origins/history of Lesley? There has to be more. Who was Lesley? The kindergarten part likely has a lot more behind it, perhaps with the emergence of the kindergarten/early childhood development movement of the late nineteenth century. Is thre a potential connection between the Lesley founder and the precepts of Friedrich Wilhelm August Froebel (Froebel School in nearby Providence, RI), the education Reform Movement, or Heinrich Pestalozzi?
campus pics would be nice too.
More degree descriptions would be good, and the evolution to university status (I wrote similar description on AIB article). CApitol3 15:37, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit]Does anyone know enough to write an article about the college/university founder's contributions to education? With a pic even! And an article about President McKenna too.CApitol3 15:41, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
Lesley seal
[edit]Is there a source for the Lesley seal? I have seen it, it has two griffin sort of animals on either side of a shield. Would be nice in the info box.CApitol3 15:41, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Student Life
[edit]Is there a reason that this page contains a list of all of Lesley University's housing? It doesn't seem like that section is of general interest... Reyemile (talk) 22:18, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
EDS campus use
[edit]Hi Public Affairs folks. Bill, I am not the source of the passage regarding EDS. Please review the edit history which shows an unregistered user at IP address 209.240.206.204 made the addition. I later edited that user's text for tense, grammar, and added an internal wiki link regarding the architecture. Jim Hood CApitol3 (talk) 15:25, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
Notable alumni and faculty?
[edit]Isn't there usually a list? I ask because I'm looking for places to add links to an orphaned biographical article. Rosekelleher (talk) 00:02, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
