Comment: Michaelassi is probably notable under our guideline WP:PROF, but this is not a NPOV encyclopedia article, but rather a press release or advertisement praising him and his college. The emphasis on the progress of the department and the medical school makes it clear that this was written by a promotional purpose, quite possibly by an individual of the staff employed for the purpose of doing public relations. Please see our policy , WP:COI amd WP:PAID. The provisions there for disclosure are not optional. It is quite rare for a press agent to write a satisfactory article, because the nature of their work is different from the nature of the work done by volunteers writing WP articles. Please wait until someone unconnectedf with the college write an article. DGG ( talk ) 09:24, 20 July 2019 (UTC)
