Template talk:University of Saskatchewan

message: It looks like this template (still under development, apparently :-) ) includes subparts of the University of Saskatchewan AND other colleges and universities in Saskatchewan. 
That seems like two separate topics, or else a template for "Universities and colleges in Saskatchewan" with a subsection for Univ of Sask. --orlady 18:44, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hello there.  The colleges which are listed in the template are all associated with the University and called 'affiliated colleges' all except for St. Thomas More which is a federated college and is part of the University as it pertains to academics, but associated with the province with financing and administration.  If a student attends any of the colleges listed (which are operated independently), the students are receiving a U of S degree if they come to completion.  ....See also the University of Saskatchewan Academics page as well as the main page for the University of Saskatchewan Affiliated Colleges  There are other colleges in Saskatchewan which you cannot earn a U of S degree in attendance, and those would be on a different template.  All these are joined in with the U of S at the moment some of them fairly recently.   SriMesh | talk 04:35, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
Talk:Arrogance (disambiguation)

message: You know, I expected a psychology article here. What gives? 71.35.171.234 06:12, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Arrogance can connotate a blatant disregard for the needs and feelings of others or the rules of society or a supreme overcondifence and/or belief in one's personal superiority. Or all of the above. Arrogance is a common affiliation of psychopaths and narcissists. However some people do have the right to be arrogant, either because they actually are "all that" or they know what they're doing better than other people do. A good example of a character who is justifiably arrogant would be James Bond. Or me, lol. --Jupiter Optimus Maximus (talk) 19:20, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Arrogance learned or a "birth defect"? 

message: With regards to merging the entries for Arrogance and Hubris, it would seem that in both their current and original contexts they are not referring to the same entity, although there is overlap. Arrogance usually is an overarching quality attributable to a person, but it can also be used to describe a policy, government, corporation, etc. Although it is not used in a flattering way, it does not carry the certainty of negative consequence. Hubris, in its Greek origins as well as contemporary use, implies that there is, or soon will be, a negative consequence to the prideful behaviour. In journalism, the word hubris is often used with a measure of hindsight, as in, for example, an assessment of how an individual perceived to be highly successful comes to some humiliating downfall which could have been avoided had it not been for an excess of pride or over-confidence on their part. It would be better, therefore, to keep the two terms (Arrogance and Hubris) as separate entities. RuffianReady (talk) 18:22, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Edwin S. Burdell

message: Hmmm, seems to be a problem in terminology.
Cooper Union has had a President in recent history, but
the role of the President seems to have been filled by the "Director"
in the past.  It seems during his service, Edwin S. Burdell's title changed from "Director" to "President" of Cooper Union, and the title Director was no longer used.
The Board of Trustees had also had a "President".
Adding to the fun is that the "Director"'s post was actually vacant
for a 15 years. Burdell was eventually appointed to the dormant post.
So technically, Charles Russell Richards, as the previous director, would preceed Burdell, rather than Gano Dunn, as Director/President.

On the Bowery
One warm morning last week a procession of men and women in academic gowns, including many a U. S. college president, many a big name in Science and Art, solemnly circled a massive, dingy brownstone building in the shadow of the Third Avenue elevated on Manhattan's Bowery. Then they marched into a basement auditorium to see big-eared Dr. Edwin Sharp Burdell, former dean of humanities at M. I. T., installed as director of Cooper Union. 
[...]
the trustees decided to appoint a director, which Cooper Union had not had for 15 years.

Talk:Heihe

message: A couple of problems: 
1) The stated population of 113,000 for Heihe doesn't match the population figures in the Administrative divisions section.
2) How do the 'Administrative divisions' relate to the 'city' of Heihe? I notice that Bei'an city is a city within a city, which doesn't make sense in English (Western categorisations). From the information in the article and by looking at Google maps, it seems to me that Heihe is both a 'municipal area' in western terms AND a city on the Amur River within that larger area; Bei'an is another city within the Heihe municiple area. Or is it better to keep to the local Chinese categories, where, presumably, it is permissible to have a city within a city?
