POV article

This article reads like an advertisement for CUNY Law, and I suggest a significant rewrite. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.202.205.242 (talk) 06:55, 9 February 2010 (UTC) The first part that contains praise about the law school should be moved to a new section: "Praise for the law school" Brianlowy (talk) 15:01, 28 June 2011 (UTC)Brian

RE: POV Article

Hello Mr. Lowy,

I see that you have been making edits to the CUNY Law Wikipedia site and made a comment on the Talk page. While it is a public document, we try and keep the piece updated and correct. Are you working on a specific project that leads you to update our entry or are you an alum? Perhaps there is a way to work together. Please get in touch with me so we can discuss your interest and our shared goals. Thank you.

Revision needed

I took it upon myself to reorganize the article into sections in accordance with the guidelines of the College & Universities Wikiproject. I haven't revised the content more than a few touch-ups. This article is in sore need of a revision because of the writing style appearing partial like promotional literature (i.e. boosterism) and not in keeping with Wikipedia's POV policies. It also has a considerable issues with various MOS concerns, linkfarm, and citation issues. Further, seeing that a CUNY official has been involved with the article's maintenance (see comments above) makes me ill-at-ease regarding objectivity vis-a-vis Wikipedia's policies. --ColonelHenry (talk) 03:11, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
