- Keep, president of a major university, widely covered in media. Meets all inclusion criteria. Suggest Speedy Keep as bad faith nomination. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 18:51, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Easily passes WP:PROF especially #5 (The person holds or has held a named chair appointment or "Distinguished Professor" appointment at a major institution of higher education and research.). I would say President counts as a distinguished appointment. --Selket Talk 20:20, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy keep, clearly meets WP:PROF #6 and no real basis has been articulated to override that. Article could use a bit of cleanup, however.--Arxiloxos (talk) 02:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
