Dr Finkel contacting MSA

The validity of the statement that Dr Finkel contacted the MSA re: Students for Palestine is dubious. A conversation was held at a university council meeting, and those present did not discuss Students for Palestine, rather, Student issues were discussed between the two parties. Unless further substantial evidence is found, I recommend deletion of that statement Stinger9894 (talk) 02:13, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References for awards

As it stands now, almost none of the awards and recognition have any references to support them. As a BLP, these should be removed if a suitable reference can't be found are there any?--Gronk Oz (talk) 13:12, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
