OK, we now have a photo of one of their buildings. But would it be possible to have a photo of their overall campus? Kind of like this one, but it could be taken from the ground.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jmchuff (talk • contribs) .
The "Controversy over gay sheep experiments" section is factually incorrect and POV: the researcher in question is not teasting whether "homosexuality can be 'corrected'", but whether alterations in maternal & fetal hormone levels can affect adult sexual partner preference. I'll change the info accordingly. -- Scientizzle 19:40, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
The website http://www.divamag.co.uk/diva/update.asp does not back up the claim that "gay and lesbian publications have taken a critical view of PETA." This reference is simply a news article that is reporting on the controversy. It contains quotes from both sides and it doesn't take an obvious stance. This is not a position paper or staff editorial which would be needed to be supportive of this statement. In fact the news article ends with the quote from PETA: "The implications of this so-called ‘research‚ are dangerous to the LGBT community. If [the scientists] are altering sheep's hormonal profiles in utero, it's naïve to think that such a technique would not someday be tried on human fetuses." JBeckham 10:42, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] For Improvement
Ways to improve: get a logo and move the picture into the article. Move most info from opening paragraph into other sections. Probably couls have a section called "Campuses" with sub sections "Main," "West," and "South Waterfront." OrRegPrimCent is part of west so combine that into that area. Then probably some statistics, expand info on the facilities, and I'm sure there is more history (i.e. the merger with Willamette University's med school around 1917). Then eventually probably good to branch off the hospital into its own article with a "see main article" tag and small section about each on the other's page. Just some thoughts.
