What I added
editI added the mission and vision of the university, as well as the president's letter and the President's Curriculum Vitae.as well as an article about the violence, and it's use in distant learning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ratatassi23 (talk • contribs) 20:40, 24 February 2013 (UTC)
- I removed these additions. The mission statement, the president's address, and the president's CV were excessively promotional; the article from the Lebanon Daily Star was a WP:COPYVIO, as a long piece of text taken verbatim from a copyrighted source; the paragraph about distance learning only dealt tangentially with al-Baath U., which was one of three schools in three different countries that were briefly mentioned.
