Talk:SIT Graduate Institute

Page needs a number of updates throughout edit

I’m so sorry. I work at SIT Graduate Institute and made a number of updates to this page, not aware of Wikipedia’s policy on Conflicts of Interest. Once I became aware of that, I undid my edits.

I had fixed a number of broken links, and I have left these, as I understand edits of this nature are considered uncontroversial edits. I had also corrected the logo in the infobox, and I have left this. I hope those edits are okay.

There are a number of inaccuracies on the page. These are as follows:

Infobox: Actual number of enrolled students is 290. President is Dr. Sophia Howlett.

Student Body: Current enrollment is 290. We do not have up-to-date data on demographics.

Administration and Faculty: Daniel Yalowitz is no longer with SIT. The school is currently led by President Sophia Howlett.

Accreditation: Accreditation was renewed in 2013 and next review is 2022. I left the updated link.

Reporting: It appears that reporting is actually done under the name “SIT Graduate Institute”.

The SIT Graduate Institute and SIT Study Abroad articles should be merged under the School for International Training article, as the school is one single academic institution. Wikipedia typically doesn't maintain articles for individual academic departments of schools, and so continuing to do so for an institution as small as this is inconsistent with other articles on analogous topics. There was a time when SIT was attempting to brand its graduate department and study abroad department separately, but that is no longer the case. Crm18 (talk) 05:00, 5 August 2021 (UTC)Reply
