  • Delete. No evidence that this educator passes WP:Prof. No other claims. Xxanthippe (talk) 23:15, 22 January 2018 (UTC).[reply]
  • Keep A college with over 13,000 students is significant, whether "community" or not; being president of two such colleges in succession meets WP:PROF#C6. News coverage (a sampling of the better hits I found on a first pass: [1][2][3][4][5]) meets WP:GNG. Being an education expert for the transition teams of two successive governors counts toward WP:PROF#C7. XOR'easter (talk) 23:24, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Being a community college president is not automatically notable, but neither is it automatically non-notable; it needs additional evidence in the form of in-depth reliable independent coverage (WP:GNG). Sources 1, 2, 4, and 5 of the ones listed by XOR'easter provide that coverage. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:18, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. I am in agreement with XOR'easter that being the president of Massachusetts' largest community college, larger than many universities in the United States, meets the requirements for WP:PROF#C6. — Pontius Aquila (talk)
  • Keep per @XOR'easter & @David Eppstein. Meets WP:GNG and several points of WP:PROF. The nominator should have done some WP:BEFORE. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 03:48, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Here's another source: When Grit Isn't Enough. Andrew D. (talk) 07:11, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep Well done to all those above for finding more sources. I am convinced that she passes WP:GNG. 17:39, 23 January 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edwardx (talkcontribs)
  • Keep -- 13,000 students is a significant institution of higher learning, whether it's designated as a community college or not. Meets WP:PROF, in my mind, + sources above. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:11, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep solely on the basis of Bunker Hill CC being the largest CC in Massachusetts per WP:PROF#C6. However, this really does need improved sourcing. Chetsford (talk) 22:56, 26 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Passes the SNG for academics as head of a major academic institution. Carrite (talk) 12:51, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
