Merge

There is some excellent information in the newly-created article Kentucky Female Orphan School that could beef up the history section of this article. I propose that it be merged into this article, since it appears that they are the same institution. Only the name seems to have changed. Acdixon (talk contribs count) 15:53, 1 December 2010 (UTC)

When I created the article in 2005 I added a history section that include content about Kentucky Female Orphan School. Evidently it was removed later. I would be in favor of including information about Kentucky Female Orphan School in this article. I have no strong view on whether the articles should be merged.

My grandfather was one of the origional founders. I have visited many times, and both articles do refer to the same place and should probably be combined. Daniel Starks 65.103.190.52 (talk) 02:08, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

I think it depends how much info there is about each as an independent entity. If the orphanage was merely converted to the college, with no substantial overlap, and they have mostly buildings in common, I don't think they would be merged. The info on the orphanage is pretty brief as of this date, and much more could probably be added. 98.220.165.202 (talk) 15:13, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Desegregated?

I thought Midway University now admits males. Nicmart (talk) 07:23, 18 June 2017 (UTC)

@Nicmart: As noted in the last sentence of the first paragraph in the lead, admissions of male students will begin in fall 2017. Acdixon (talk · contribs) 15:28, 19 June 2017 (UTC)
Midway already has an active men's baseball team, so it is no longer the only women's college in Kentucky. Nicmart (talk) 14:24, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
