A good portion of this article looks like something out of an admissions catalogue advertising the university. Someone who is a much better writer than I am needs to go through this and re-word some of this article to make it comply with a more neutral point of view. I also get the impression that there is direct copy/paste type plagiarism here from perhaps the University website or admissions catalogue - another thing that needs to be checked somehow.

Bias here

A good portion of this article looks like something out of an admissions catalogue advertising the university. Someone who is a much better writer than I am needs to go through this and re-word some of this article to make it comply with a more neutral point of view. I also get the impression that there is direct copy/paste type plagiarism here from perhaps the University website or admissions catalogue - another thing that needs to be checked somehow. --Zanzor 23:28, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Guest Lecturers

You can add Bill Cosby to the list of guest speakers. I don't remember the exact year, but he spoke at the graduation ceremony a few years back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 63.76.208.81 (talk) 20:44, 22 February 2007 (UTC).

Fair use rationale for Image:Wcu logo.gif

Image:Wcu logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
