The result was keep. The organisation which is the topic of an article does not own that article, and the fact that people working for the organisation aren't able to impose their preferred version of the article is not a reason for deletion under Wikipedia policy. This discussion is certainly not going to lead to deletion, so there is no point in keeping it open any longer. (See Wikipedia:Snowball clause.) I have also alerted the nominator to Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 08:52, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This is unquestionably a notable college. It is an NCAA division II school with a history dating back to 1911. The school being upset that they don't control the content is not a valid deletion reason. They control the content on their own website. If the school finds things are out of date or wrong they can provide suggested updates to the article on the talk page with reliable sources to back up the information. ~ GB fan 20:09, 9 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep as it's a clearly notable subject and no policy-based argument for deletion has been presented (deleting an article about a liberal arts college would surely be unprecedented). Cordless Larry (talk) 06:03, 10 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy Keep - Our maintenance failures are no valid rationale for deletion, they are an editing matter. This is clearly a notable educational institution. Carrite (talk) 04:33, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep per above users. Corkythehornetfan (ping me) 04:46, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
