• Might be worth mentioning his death directly in the lead, as that is an important part of a biography. If you don't think that's necessary, I'm willing to retract this.
  • His death wasn't especially remarkable, so I don't know if it adds that much. Ergo Sum 05:05, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• "Bunn completed his education at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome, receiving a Doctor of Philosophy degree in philosophy" - When did this occur? According to the student newspaper (ref 3), it was 1930. If that's right, add it.
  • Added the year. Ergo Sum 05:07, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• " With this saw a significant increasing in the number of students and an improvement in the quality of its faculty" - Can you find a way to reword this? This sentence just doesn't read correctly to me at all.
  • That was a typo. It should have read "increase" rather than "increasing." Ergo Sum 05:07, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• Based on what I know about this subject, it looks like Bunn probably served two consecutive six-year terms. Is this accurate? If so, it should probably be mentioned somewhere.
  • I don't know. None of the sources I've consulted have mentioned specific terms. I know the duration of terms for Jesuit university presidents has varied over time and was eventually abolished, so I don't know how long it was during Bunn's lifetime. Ergo Sum 05:08, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• "including a Doctor of Laws from Fordham University in 1938,[1] a Doctor of Laws from Brandeis University in 1958,[3] and a Doctor of Laws from Wheeling College in 1964,[51] a Doctor of Laws from Seattle University in 1964" - The use of the and in the middle of the list, as opposed to the end of the lists of Doctors of Laws degrees, is a bit odd.
  • Cleaned up that sentence. Ergo Sum 05:10, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• Is cause of death known?
  • I have not found a source that identifies it. Ergo Sum 05:10, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
• This article is in Category:Burials at the Jesuit Community Cemetery, but there's no mention of this in the article. Per WP:CATV, this needs cited in the article for inclusion in this category.
  • The only source I can find to back this up is Billion Graves. What are your thoughts on whether this is a reliable source? Ergo Sum 05:16, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
    • Home page of that website makes it sound user-generated. Looks like it was inspired by the Find A Grave model. Hog Farm _Bacon 05:25, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
      • In that case, I've removed the category. Ergo Sum 05:40, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

All the sources look reliable, and the image licensing is correct, although I'm admittedly not an expert in that area. Placing on hold, yet another excellent article, as usual. Hog Farm _Bacon 20:43, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your feedback, Hog Farm. Ergo Sum 05:17, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
