- Keep, the list is clearly verifiable even though not verified at present. All but two of those listed are bluelinked, so it's simply a matter of eventually adding references supporting that those notable people were alumni of this notable institution. Absent a compelling reason, we do not simply delete an article because it does not have sources if it is obvious that it can be sourced. postdlf (talk) 19:52, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep – As I understand it, lists like this are standard. UBC seems to fit the mold of other universities that have such lists. Deleting it would suggest such notable alumni lists are not sanctioned. Lambanog (talk) 14:11, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
