The edits from 2019 that indicate something "will" happen in 2020 need to be updated for currency. 75.115.130.145 (talk) 21:10, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alumni gallery

Dude @ElKevbo stop reversing my edits. There are dozens of major institutions with more images in their alumni gallery. I added just like 6 additional, extremely relevant people (including a Nobel laureate and heads of state). If you are going to just reverse my edits, come up with better reasoning instead of just saying it's bloated. What is even the barometer for something being bloated. Better yet, contribute and discuss why some people should be included or not-- don't just blanket reverse. Edardfox (talk) 00:53, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Three different editors have reverted your edits: Drmies, GuardianH, and myself. Stop edit-warring, revert your edits, and develop a consensus here in Talk. ElKevbo (talk) 01:09, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

-== Symbols ==
-If the fight song is going to be included, I think it would be wise to include the alma mater as well (as quite honestly...that is the school's song!) In addition, there could be mention of the history of the fight song. UConn Husky is not the original fight song for the university. I know that the original song is in the UConn Songbook. Unfortunately, I don't go to UConn anymore so I don't have quick access to this book (I wish they just put it online!)

-== University of Connecticut, motto ==
-please note that in reviewing your UConn page in Wikipedia, I failed to note the existence of the University of
-Connecticut's latin motto, which is and has always been: "qui transulit sustinet".
-I see mottos listed for other universities and colleges but not couldn't locate it in UConn's Wikipedia page.
-pls confirm motto with other UConn grads or contact UConn, Storrs, Ct for corroboration, then please list it under the circular UConn icon on the right hand portion of the UConn, Wikipedia page.  this is apparently your preferred location for mottos of other universities/colleges., e.g., see  Wiki page for NYU,etc.
-thank you for your involvement in keeping info free, complete, and truthful to your best effort.

-== UConn Technology Park ==
-Governor Malloy and University President Herbst allocated a ton of money to create the UConn Tech Park on the newly opened Discovery Drive. It's under construction as I write this and is intended to bring students in for engineering, new media, computer science and other STEM-related academic purposes. There is an entire section of UConn's website dedicated to the Tech Park.<ref>http://innovation.uconn.edu/</ref> I feel that given all of this, it deserves a paragraph under the Storrs campus subsection.
