Campus Photos

Article is a bit slim. Any chance anyone can upload some more photos? It's a handsome campus and it'd be a shame for this article not to reflect that. 50.136.74.20 (talk) 19:37, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Seems a bit strange to have a photo of some non-descript rapper who has no real affiliation with their photo posted right on the Wikipedia page that is suppose to talk about the school. I feel this does a major discredit to my school. Why wouldn't they post photographs of President Obama's visit instead. It is an educational institution and the page should reflect the schools educational values rather than promote some uneducated entertainer simply because he is famous. I have not yet figured out how to remove photos from a page or this would be gone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Larry Warner (talkcontribs) 22:40, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Infobox and Notable Alumni

Just thought I'd beef up the infobox and as well as add an alumni section. Feel free to add or modify as you see fit. 70.109.159.134 (talk) 00:52, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Full Name vs. SNHU

Changed the article so that each section first refers to it as "Southern New Hampshire University" first then as "SNHU" thereafter. 50.136.74.20 (talk) 19:46, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Why? ElKevbo (talk) 20:46, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
My guess is because the article was arbitrarily switching between the full name and the nickname. The full name is more formal, but a tad cumbersome. SNHU is shorter but far less formal. Granted, I'm not sure what the official rules are on this. 64.222.173.253 (talk) 16:18, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

SNHU Online

I would like to begin building an article for Southern New Hampshire University College of Online Continuing Education. Why? SNHU COCE is ranked as one of the top online universities in the country as well as offering over 200 online undergraduate and graduate programs, winning numerous awards and accreditations. The online college has over 45,000 students online. I believe there should be an article dedicated to this but would like some input and possibly assistance contributing to the article. Suggestions? Steve Lux, Jr. (talk) 16:11, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

The article says there are 18,000 COCE students. Cite your sources. Also Be Bold... Llamabr (talk) 20:45, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
That article was from 2012, and the article from 2014 is 32,000 students [1]. There are about 45K students now. Started working on something. Will put more time into it soon. Steve Lux, Jr. (talk) 15:53, 14 December 2015 (UTC)

Australia

Some referenced text was removed from the history section of the article by another editor regarding the sacking of a professor from the University after failing a student on an assignment. The professor's main reason for the failing grade was that they believed Australia was a continent and not a country. I had thought given the large scale press coverage (particularly in Australia) it would be noteworthy for inclusion in the article. The edit can be seen here [2] Regards Hughesdarren (talk) 00:34, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

I understand the rationale behind wanting to include it, but unless this becomes part of a larger story about an endemic problem, one isolated incident most likely doesn't merit mention in an encyclopedic article Woko Sapien (talk) 17:57, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Quality Scale

This article is clearly beyond Start Class on the quality scale. I've gone ahead and promoted it to B-Class. Obviously, there may be some debate whether C-Class is more appropriate, but I think this article satisfies the six B-Class criteria. Woko Sapien (talk) 19:10, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Largest University in the US

I did some research and it appears as of 2021, SNHU is the largest university in the US. I did add it to the page. Let me know your thoughts.
