Talk:BYU Alumni and Friends

What do you think of the name? Is there a better name to use than "Our People"? Maybe, "Friends of BYU"? The problem with both of them is that they create exclusions (i.e. there are some people who are NOT "our people" or not "friends of BYU") Kurt Gee 04:59, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Good question. There is no easy solution. What about "BYU Alumni and Friends" I think that is pretty close to accurate. Daw44 05:03, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

I moved the page (as you can see). I like that name a lot better. Kurt Gee 04:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

What do you think about adding a "research methodology" section (or primary/secondary?). Any other information that would be nice to have in the table? Daw44 05:03, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

I think that would be useful. Also, do we want to put "Ph.D. granting institution" on the table? or should we just make people go to the user's page? Kurt Gee 04:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

I've been trying to make a list of the changes that need to be made to individual faculty pages. Is that something else you want me to update while we're going on here, or should the user make those changes? I don't think I'd be stepping on anyone's toes to update a link so it actually works. Several colleges and universities have changed their directories, and our links don't redirect. Kurt Gee 04:27, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Also, do we want to include non-accounting faculty (David Wagner--Org B. & Gordon Smith--Law)? What about faculty who don't have a PhD, like Richard Dalebout? Or non-current faculty like Steve Albrecht? Should there be a special designation ("Retired Faculty") for them? Kurt Gee 04:36, 25 January 2011 (UTC)
