The result was redirect to Fairfield University. Consensus to not keep, but not consensus to delete; redirection is a compromise that allows mergers if people want that. Sandstein 22:22, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sources provided do not meet WP:GNG and notability is not inherited from the notable parent article. ElKevbo (talk) 01:59, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Fairfield University School of Engineering (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Fairfield University Egan School of Nursing and Health Studies (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- I'm amenable to that outcome. ElKevbo (talk) 02:37, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep academic subdivisions of a university designated as colleges should be considered inherently notable. They generally have seperate commentment exercises, and control their own budgets and staffing in ways that make them clearly notable entities.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:08, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- That is not in line with either our general notability guideline nor our common practices. You're welcome to open a discussion to propose a change to the guideline but I'm very skeptical that other editors would be supportive of us having articles about subjects for which there are few, if any, independent sources especially since there is already agreement that notability is not inherited.

- Redirect - to the university's article. There's been a general practice for years here that excepting law and medical schools, individual schools of a university are best covered in the university article. I see no reason to deviate here, and I see nothing to merge, as everything is sourced to the university. 174.254.192.213 (talk) 20:50, 8 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all because there's nothing much to merge, and a redirect is unnecessary--anyone looking for this will immediately find the article on the university We only make these sub-University college articles for the largest and most famous universities, because others will not general have sufficient importance and coverage. All universities have websites, and that's where this belongs. (Fairfield is very decidedly not in the class of ,most famous universities---- see the article on it) DGG ( talk ) 20:09, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete all as per DGG. There really isn't anything to merge.--Rusf10 (talk) 04:51, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
