Talk:Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee

message: We probably should have sections on each of the college's former names, viz. Milwaukee State Normal School and Milwaukee State Teacher’s College, both of which now redirect here. These originally pointed to University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee but there is strong opposition to having redirect targets in the introduction to that article, which is one of the reasons I started this one. I suspect that the current article name and Wisconsin State College–Milwaukee (which also now redirects here) are different forms of the same name. Andrewa 03:24, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If you make sections for Milwaukee State Normal School and Milwaukee State Teacher’s College, there should also be a section for Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee then. I really don't think there is much contents for each of them.Miaers 21:31, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed that the history of WSCM belongs in this article, certainly as currently titled! There are several possible section titles, again in view of the current article title. It may take a while for the contents to arrive, but I expect there is an interesting and instructive story to be told. Andrewa 00:49, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Some sections to add

message: I notice that http://www.uwmpost.com/article/c58b6a040bf450fc010bfc273f890006 uses the names Wisconsin Normal School and Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee. Andrewa 05:47, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: More on names

message: this page is pretty stupid to have, because it basically is part of the university of wisconsin-milwaukee. so it would be nice to just delete the page.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by JS1988c (talk • contribs) 19:06, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: UW-M was created by the merger of the old WSC and the Milwaukee Extension division of UW. There's no harm in having the full information available. --Orange Mike  | Talk 01:31, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  deletion of wisconsin state college of milwaukee 

message: The insertion of this whacking gigantic table puts undue emphasis on the Green Gulls' men's basketball team, at the expense of the entire rest of the history of the school. That is why I have to concur that the scores should stay out. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 01:27, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Green Gulls basketball scores 

message: I just found three articles that explicitly refer to the school as Milwaukee State during the time when its official name was Wisconsin State College of Milwaukee.  This is consistent with how many of the schools in the similarly named California State University are referred to today (i.e. California State University, Fresno is much better known simply as "Fresno State") and think this should probably be made more clear in the article.
