Talk:Mario Savio

message: I changed 'Radical author Ayn Rand' to 'Author Ayn Rand'. How exactly and in what context was Ayn Rand Radical? If the author meant that she was revolutionary in the literary world then that doesn't really have much bearing on this page. -

thread_title:  Sproul Hall 

message: How did this guy, a spirited, impationned activist and freedom fighter, who held "modest" (yet unnamed for some reason) jobs, manage to get his kid Nadav to graduate from one of the most elitist and exclusive schools in the states, the Sidwell Friends School, alongside the clintons and gores and rumshfelds to name only a few...Makes one think abou 
t how smal this world is and the ties that bind us... ;)
Donald Rumsfeld sent his kid to a school run by QUAKERS?  Now, that's just weird...
As to the main point of your entry
It is likely that Sidwell Friends has programs whereby students deemed gifted or deemed to represent the pacifist and progressive values of the Friends tradition are given financial assistance to attend.  Not everyone whose children attend Sidwell Friends is a political heavyweight or an elitist millionaire.  It's rather unpleasant of you to imply that Mario Savio, who indeed needed financial help from his friends to pay for the purchase of his home when he was in declining health and wished to make sure that his wife and children would have a place to live if he died young(a possibility he knew to be very real), had secret elite connections or hidden wealth that in some way discredit him as an honorable and legitimate radical voice in U.S. history.  If you have proof of your implications, you should feel obligated to print it.  If you just decided to spread gossip about a famous dead leftist, you should delete it now.

hmm, did he actually do any real work in his life - you know, PRODUCE anything? or did he just flap his gums like the rest of the left? 66.87.8.163 (talk) 03:02, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  How? 

message: I'm sorry... is this a wikipedia article or a fan page? It seems like the latter.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.192.56.138 (talk) 02:00, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: OK, I'm willing to hear the wisdom you've gained with your two talk pages edits over two days experience on wikipedia.  What SPECIFICALLY should we consider changing?  Or are you offended that an article about a political radical isn't the hatchet job you'd like it to be?  MikeyLin (talk) 18:52, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Encyclopaedic? 

message: The 'early life' section mentions that he went to Manhattan College in 1960, then Queens college until 1963.  Later, it says he enrolled at Berkley.  Section 'later life' says he went to Oxford on a scholarship (but did not finish), and returned to study at SFState in 1984 to receive a bachelor's and master's degree.
So, if I understand correctly:
* He did not receive degrees from: Manhattan College, Queens College, Berkeley, or Oxford.
* He received a bachelor's and master's from SF State U.
Open questions:
* Was he kicked out of these schools?  Did he drop out?  Did he choose to transfer?
If anyone can confirm, I will edit the article to be less ambiguous.  Thanks 71.46.57.68 (talk) 00:22, 6 October 2014 (UTC)
