[edit] Cleanup
I think the notable alumni section needs pruning--if these people are notable, they need their own articles. What's left needs to be copyedited. The article reads somewhat like an ad, and I suspect some copy-and-paste from the school's website. For guidelines to help cleanup, take a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Universities.

[edit] Ideas for improvement/expansion
If you look at some of the other college articles on wikipedia you will see PU does not have very much coverage. First, how to improve existing article:
- 1) The alumni list should be pared down to those with existing articles, and then just a brief mention of what makes them important
- 2) Cite some sources and make it more encylopedic (see WP:MOS)
- 3) expand academic coverage
- 4) start a athletics section
- 5) start a campus section
Expansion: New articles to start and then link between.
- Pacific University Health Professions Campus, Pacific Univesity College of Health Professions, Sidney Marsh, Marsh Hall, Pacific University College of Optometry, Alvin T. Smith House, Alvin T. Smith, Tualatin Academy, and the other schools and any other notable buildings.
Good luck, and stop by Wikiproject Oregon if you have any questions or need some assitance. Aboutmovies 16:22, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
