Review section

Hog Farm brought up issues with this article back in March 2021. Their main concerns were uncited material in the notable alumni and other person section and dated sourcing for sections such as Research, Student life, and Housing. There are also some sandwiching issues with images, a lack of alt text, and a possible over dependence on primary sources. ~ HAL333 21:07, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've sourced most of the alumni section, resolved the sandwiches, and added alt text to the images. That's about as much effort as I'm willing to put in, but I hope someone else carries this forward; this page isn't in as dire shape as some of the others that were delisted sooner. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 01:39, 4 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Being that I spent about a year at this university, and that I might know my way around resources related to Southern California topics. I could try to at least find links to replace a handful of the dead ones. However, I cannot guarantee it would be enough to maintain the article up to FA standards. It would be a shame to see this article demoted.

@Birdienest81: If you're willing to put in the work, everyone else will help let you know what the remaining issues are and it should be possible to save this. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 08:18, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
