organization and the listing of someone in this role is alarming for us because of the implications for directors and officers' liability. This information in the article also is not consistent with the (correct) information that we have provided to our insurance carriers. References to the
Society of Jesus being the Center's "parent organization" are not accurate, as we have an independent status. The Superior General of the Jesuits inquired about this status in the 1970s and I have his correspondence to this effect in my office. Representations about the Center's quarterly newsletter are not accurate as the Center stopped mailing this newsletter years ago because printed and mailed communications are much less effective, timely, economical, and ecological. The organization uses electronic distribution now to reach more people with better content, and for less money. The article was not accurate that Education for Justice materials are "free." In fact, the organization spends thousands of hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars every year to create and market them as a major source of revenue, as it has done for 15 years. The unauthorized representations that appeared in the Knowledge (XXG) article implicated Federal Trade Comission and other laws and harmed our marketing efforts, including the thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours we have spent on rebranding. The organization's predecessor Web site includes legacy material that has not been accurate for a long time, in some cases, many years. Predecessor leadership had not maintained this information accurately and the new team has been rectifying this and is in the process of building a completely new site. The new material that I inserted was a simple factual recitation of the Center's vision, mission, and strategy, along with the fact of its founding in 1971 and some of its affiliations. This was because I could not determine how to remove the article completely, which was my preference. The information I inserted is official, as it comes directly from me, the president, and we have distributed it in numerous other venues. I take exception to the arbitrary determination by uninformed editors last evening that this was "marketing" or "promotional" material. As president, I also take exception to the suggestion that I should be obligated to explain deletions of inaccurate information that an unauthorized writer decided to post without even contacting us. The issue is not documenting what does appear or explaining why content should go away, but rather letting us have some voice in sharing who we are and the service we provide for our friends around the world. This article was distinctly unhelpful to our educational efforts and I want it to come down immediately. Thank you.

I have indicated with each edit why I was moving the information. There has been no lack of clarity about this. Our preference would be to remove the article completely. Please respect our wishes. Thank you.

The problem now is the article has gone from weak independent sourcing to no independent sourcing. Every source currently cited in the article is somebody connected (currently or formerly) with Center. That warrants a maintenance tag.
