Talk:Gonzaga College High School

message: Visitation is NOT Gonzaga's sister school.  Gonzaga has not had a sister school since Notre Dame High School, which used to be on Gonzaga's campus, closed in the early '80s.  Referencing Georgetown Visitation has a sister school is highly inappropriate.
*The two schools participate in numerous events together (and Gonzaga at least has a special committee of its Mother's Club related solely to Visitation events) and during the 1990s there was a tuition exchange program in which the teachers at Gonzaga could send their daughters to Visitation and the teachers at Visitation could send their sons to Gonzaga at reduced rates.  While the two schools are completely separate as far as governance is concerned, there is an undeniable institutional affiliation which has developed at least over the past two decades.  Regardless of what was true during the 80s and beforehand, today Visitation is Gonzaga's sister school.  This assertion can be supported by simply asking any student at either of the two schools what their sibling institution is.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.21.43.64 (talk) 02:32, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

message: The basketball court in the old gym, in Dooley Hall, used to be known as the swimming pool, because the floor was 10 feet below the rest of the gym, the walls were 2 inches outside the sidelines, and when Tiber Creeek flooded it filled the basketball court like a . . . swimming pool.  The story in the early '60s when I was there was that in the '30s and '40s the floor was wood, and Gonzaga used to win all its home games because our players knew where the dead (waterlogged) spots in the floor were.
In the 70s when I was there, it was "The Pit". In 78 when the new gym opened, there was a 
contest to devise the best use of the old hole. The winning entry was a suggestion to
fill it with lions and use it to measure each Jesuit's persuasiveness in comparison to Daniel. 75.36.181.116 21:42, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Greetings editors!
I recently deleted some non-notable current students (don't take it personally) who were mentioned.  Please consult What not to include which notes the policy used by the Wikischools Project in determining what doesn't belong in Wikipedia school articles.  In short:
1.  Don't include the names of current students/staff, unless they are notable for something outside of being a student/teacher/coach/competitor for the school.
2. Don't include short term events for the year.
Before adding anything, please check this out.  Also, if something you added gets deleted, check this out before running to re-add it.
Best of luck!  LonelyBeacon 05:17, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I am giving this article a provisional importance assessment rating of Mid based on the school's history and its extensive notable alumni.  The Start rating is likely appropriate without more thorough referencing and citing. LonelyBeacon (talk) 19:49, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Some content was removed from the article with this edit. It's probably not suitable for such ambiguous coverage of of living people to be included until it's clear that any pending criminal, civil or employment actions have resolved themselves. Given 12 or 18 months it should be fine to include carefully worded neutral content on the issues. Stuartyeates (talk) 05:25, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
