555:. Antioch is listed as a corporation with the California Secretary of State. Another example is FIDM.) So, certainly we should have more templates, right? Perhaps yes -- for the for-profit private universities and the not-for-profit private universities. AND perhaps we should have different templates for the religious schools vs. non-religious schools! After all, if a school's profit agenda is part of an editor's evaluation, shouldn't a school's religious agenda be part of our evaluation? And perhaps we should take this parsing one step further -- some relig:ious based schools incorporate religious studies as a mandatory part of their academic program while other do not. (See, e.g.,

split. With the recent topicality in mind, I think WP:NPOV demands that we steer clear (or is it stear cleer?) of going beyond the broadly encompassing, understandable, and appropriate Public/Private
University classifications. Again, we can parse out private U's into religious, ethnic, etc., categories (which are just as basic) but doing so will likely lead to confusion. E.g., how would we classify a private, historically African-American, religious based/sponsored, not-for-profit, women's college

567:, work & non-work colleges, etc. My point is simple, reverting my change from the broad, neutral, understandable Private university to the value-laden for-profit category was a very subtle, albeit good faith, WP:POV move. We could not make such a change for all these other categories -- we should not do so for profit schools.--
457:
I made several significant changes to the template. I shortened schools' names, including deleting "University" and "College" whenver possible. (If I got any shortened names wrong, please fix it.) I also merged the Cal State schools' links, and similarly added the individual

amount of criticism of the industry. That said, the difference between non-profit and for-profit private universities is a basic and, to my mind, neutral, one on the level of the difference between public and private. I have no objection to merging the private and for-profit categories if that is
606:
I take this as agreement to merge the private and for-profit cats, thus going back to my revision. BTW, in
Googling "for-profit college", we get 600k+ articles, with WP coming up first, after which the recent for-profit controversy was the subject. The pro and anti articles were fairly evenly

My recent edit of the template was to use a non-POV term in describing all of the non-public schools. Personally, I have no concern about whether a school (university, college, etc.) is public, private, non-profit, for profit, religious, etc. But I note that

My only concern was consistency with the other Cal State schools' links and balancing accuracy and succinctness. I am happy to have it changed back to "Cal Poly Pomona" if spelling that out is overall preferable to succinctness and consistency.

as Cal Poly Pomona saying that there was no CSU Pomona to disambiguate. My concern is not disambiguation, it's that "Pomona" or "CSU Pomona" isn't used as a name for the school. Most reliable sources use Cal Poly Pomona as a short form.
