Merge into Wiess College. Wilson is the most important figure in the college's history, which is not complete without a history of him. Also, assertion of copyright violation is incorrect; permission information is indicated in the article's discussion page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Georgewebb (talk • contribs) 22:40, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
