  • Thanks for your note about re: copyright permission--I imagine you'll be hearing back soon from Wikimedia about that. Even if you're given permission to reprint content from the school's website, the article is likely to have issues re: your conflict of interest, WP:COI and tone, WP:NPOV and WP:ADVERT. Usually content that comes directly from an institution's publications includes promotional or unencyclopedic content, as is currently the case with parts of the proposed article.
