Alumni

How about a section on alumni.

Citing

Aside from the alumni section, most of this information is from a single source (the university itself) or original research. It is also in need of some help with proper citing. If someone wants to help, that would be appreciated. Beginning 20:47, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Reneau University

The process to rename the university to Reneau University was been discarded with the end Dr. Claudia Limbert's tenure as university president in 2011. As of 2013, the university remains Mississippi University for Women. Consider edit or removal.Richsobo (talk) 15:43, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

I agree with Richsobo and am going to add a sentence or two in place of the paragraph: "On August 10, 2009, the university president Dr. Claudia Limbert announced that a new name for the institution, Reneau University, would be presented to the state college board and legislature for approval. This proposal has been opposed by some current students and alumni, many of whom fear the loss of the university's long-standing women's mission.[4] The name "Reneau University," chosen from dozens of proposed names, honors Sallie Reneau, who was instrumental in encouraging the Mississippi State Legislature to establish a public women's college in the state in the mid-nineteenth century. The Mississippi State legislature did not approve the change.[5] President Limbert retired as of June 30, 2010."

Most of the above paragraph is outdated and provides unnecessary details of something that didn't even happen. I also removed when Claudia Limbert retired, as that seems irrelevant to the summary now. Southernlefty (talk) 18:17, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

I reviewed archived sources and they are correct. I am learning so I have not yet figured how to set parameters to true. Southernlefty (talk) 06:57, 5 July 2016 (UTC)
