RE: "Mission Statement" vs. "Mission statement"
:Isn't "Mission Statement" a proper noun, a particular name of a type of document? - [[User:Rlvaughn|Rlvaughn]] 00:59, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

I spent some two hours one day adding a long section on traditions, only to have Windows restart while I was out of the room, trashing the whole thing. Here are the topics that I think deserve addition:
* Sing Song. (history, definition - a cappella ensemble performances + divisions + host/hostess role, the 50th anniversary, time of year, possibly a picture)
* Lectureship. (history, definition, the 2006 change from fall to spring)
* Social clubs. (description of concept, distinguish from fraternities/sororities, list of active clubs)
* Spring Break Campaigns
* Chapel
Also, the Study Abroad programs are not mentioned -- in fact, none of its programs are mentioned, even though the College of Business Administration has received many awards and (IIRC) been named in regional lists of good business schools. There is no mention whatsoever of the graduate programs, and this is a school that offers '''doctorates'''.
Don't get me wrong -- I hate when articles on universities turn into public relations pieces. I'm simply saying that much of what is noteworthy about the school by a neutral POV standard is absent here.[[User:Lawikitejana|Lawikitejana]] 20:28, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with the other discussion thread that there is not enough currently included in this article.
I agree with the person above who noted how much is missing from the current article. Where are the sections about "Student Life" and "Academics" and "Rules" and things like that? Maybe someone more familiar with the school could add these? Look at [[Pepperdine University]], [[Harding University]], and [[Lipscomb University]] for models.
