Reviewer: Hello, I'm going to take this article as part of the July backlog drive. I should be done in a couple of days at most. Kimikel (talk · contribs) 23:16, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

Verifiable

@PCN02WPS: Did the source spot check, will do the rest later. Some small issues but overall nothing disqualifying. Kimikel (talk) 21:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

• [24]: actually belongs to a book: [1]. Citation should be adjusted accordingly
  • Thanks for pointing this out - fixed citation format. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
• [38]: does not support text. It can only claim his was the longest as of 1997, not as of 2024.
  • Added a citation with a list of past presidents to the current day. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
• [34]: verified
• [39]: does not say anything about their marriage being in 1914
  • Added citation to verify exact date. PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
• [16]: verified

@Kimikel: these have been taken care of! PCN02WPS (talk | contribs) 16:11, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

Awesome, will get to the rest today or tomorrow Kimikel (talk) 18:30, 12 July 2024 (UTC)

• @PCN02WPS: This is my full review. Honestly, I didn't catch much that needed to be corrected. Please let me know when you've had a chance to implement my suggestions. Thank you! Kimikel (talk) 01:22, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Well-written

Nothing on a copyvio check.

Lead

• "gained it" > gained the school
• "There, he worked to distance..." > this sentence uses a "triple and", i would break it up however you see fit
• "broadly favored" > which was broadly favored
• "G.I. Bill as" > G.I. Bill, as
• "resigned the presidency" > resigned from the presidency

Career

• Is there anywhere you can link to endnote 6?
• "it was not a drastic one" > I feel like this qualifier is kind of unnecessary; a reader can decide if a 20/30% decrease is drastic or not.
• "getting back on track with" > realigning with
• "effect—complete with 180 signatures—with" > replace tacks with commas
• "But this shift" > However, this shift
• "consequences:" > consequences, as
• "By the end of his term in 1958, the school's enrollment had doubled, ultimately reaching 1,400 students" > it was 1,400 as of the time of his death, not by the end of his term. this sentence implies that it was 1,400 by the end of his term, i would reword this.

Personal life and death

• Can [40] and [42] be archived? Neither are accessible
• "remarried Nancy" > married Nancy

Broad

• [5] brings up a Charles J Turck Scholarship Fund, probably worth mentioning somewhere

Stable

Illustrated
