  • Comment: Nothing has changed since the previous decline, other than one source being moved to a different place in the draft, and a few minor changes of wording. bonadea contributions talk 11:39, 29 January 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Not one of the sources cited contributes towards notability per WP:ORG. DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:35, 15 January 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Adding a single source, which is mostly about a different topic, at a seemingly random point in the draft does not help towards showing notability for the college. bonadea contributions talk 17:45, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
