Revisiting racism controversy[edit]

OK... It's March 2008, and there haven't been any updates to this story. Do we really need to keep this in the article? It's impossible to describe this controversy in an encyclopedic manner -- we just have a patchwork description of what various individuals have said to the media. We can't even describe what happened with the Nation of Islam/Millions More Movement protest without violating the original research policy. Zagalejo^^^ 18:09, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I agree with you, there really is no need to keep that in there. I'm in the area, and it never really was that notable. THE KC (talk) 17:32, 30 March 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Sources[edit]

There are a lot of parts of this article that don't cite sources; the only section of this article that has sources is the "Notable alumni" section, and that section is overly long and unnecessary. Can somebody find sources for this article? Tojo940 (talk) 01:36, 3 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Provisional assessment[edit]

I am giving this article a provisional importance assessment of Mid because of its extensive list of alumni. The Start class assessment is likely still appropriate because a great deal of the article is still uncited. However, this rating should be checked by a more experienced editor.LonelyBeacon (talk) 23:03, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dan or Dave[edit]

  • Dan Sullivan (Illinois politician)|Dan Sullivan was an Illinois State Senator.[1]

This alum was removed from the article. The reference speaks about a "David Sullivan" being a dormer senator. The link clearly refers to a "Dan Sullivan", for which I could find no information in a reference search. I am not sure who the alum is, and who the real person is, because it appears this article is not about a real person. LonelyBeacon (talk) 16:58, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It may very well be Dave . I did some Google searches, and found this document from the schools website.[1] In it, it mentions,
I guess someone made a typo when making the Dan Sullivan article. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  17:59, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The IP who originally added the name to the article wrote Dave Sullivan. It seems that I changed it to Dan Sullivan, but I have no idea why. I haven't been able to find any evidence of an Illinois State Senator with that name. Zagalejo^^^ 18:40, 19 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Logo Resolution[edit]

Is there are reason why the resolution of the the logo is so terrible? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akakakakak83 (talk • contribs) 2011-02-18T14:33:57

When logos are not freely available, sometimes it's hard to find a good "basic version" — on websites they're often combined with other things, reduced in size, or otherwise severely compromised. This is the case with the current File:LoyolaAcademyLogo.png. It appears someone complicated the matter in this case by trying to take a low-resolution image and just resize it to a higher resolution. Just looking around briefly, I've already found better versions of the logo on website. Though non-free logos aren't supposed to be high resolution (per logo "fair use" on Wikipedia), they're not supposed to that low of quality either. --Closeapple (talk) 21:58, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Marillac merger[edit]

Edited the section regarding the merger, as Marillac was not on the verge of Bankruptcy. The merger was requested originally by the archdiocese - this has been verified with former administrator Sr. Anne Marie, with email verification if necessary. The original source was left in place, as it confirms the closure, but there was no mention of bankruptcy. Thanks.
