"Housing" section, residence halls[edit]

The list of buildings takes up a lot of space, but none of it is referenced in a serious way (all references just cycle back to the rowan.edu homepage) and it is unclear whether these buildings have any historical or cultural significance. Simply listing names upon names of buildings is inappropriate for an encyclopedia. I propose deleting these sections if nothing changes. Melchior2006 (talk) 20:37, 11 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

since no one chimed in on this, I will streamline the section a bit. --Melchior2006 (talk) 10:16, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Athletics[edit]

This entire section is filled with factual assertions, but all of the references are self-referential, that is, they point back to Rowan Public Relations. This is a problem. It looks like advertising, it is likely one-sided, and therefore I propose deleting the section if no objective sources are available. Melchior2006 (talk) 14:48, 14 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would much rather it just be adjusted to be more neutral, rather than delete the whole section; rewrite sections of it, etc. Athletics plays a large role in college life and not giving any information at all on it for a decently sized school just doesn't make sense.
