Talk:Hostos Community College

message: The above issue is, however, the least of the problems with this article. The common strategy used in wiki sophistry is to say that such an article “lacks an NPOV.” I eschew that strategy, because it usually means simply that the critic crying, "POV!" seeks to impose his or her own POV. The problem with this article is its blatant dishonesty. Consider the following issues:
1. CUNY did not seek to retroactively impose a "new" graduation requirement on Hostos students. Rather, it was Hostos that secretly introduced a new requirement that violated not only CUNY-wide standards, but Hostos' own published graduation requirements (which said that it required that all students pass the CUNY WAT, in order to graduate);
2. Hostos had a tradition of institutionalized test fraud on lower-level English tests, a tradition which has never been publicly reformed;
3. At the time, Hostos, a two-year school, had a two-year graduation rate of less than one-half of one percent (four out of 1,000 students); and
4. The Daily News did not "target" Hostos. In fact, it ignored many Hostos abuses uncovered elsewhere. The editor is angry that the Daily News refused to lie on behalf of Hostos officials. (Although it did uncritically report the claim by Hostos officials that students found with copies of an English final exam had stolen it, rather than that their teachers had given it to them.) For instance, the Daily News did not report on Hostos' tradition of institutionalized test fraud on lower-level English tests, or its violation of its own published standards.
Still, what the News did report made Hostos students look unwittingly laughable. Consider the student who insisted that (she?) knew English, just not how to write or speak it, or the students who had flunked the English examination, but who insisted to Daily News reporters that they had gotten “A’s” and “B’s” for all of their class work.
I’m not going to make any edits, until I find the old articles on Hostos.

message: Hostos has no impact on anything.  All of it revenue comes from the Federal and State government in the form of aid in tuition.  It is a government make-work project in theform of a college, etc.  Since it is serves the Spanish speaking population, how is it helping people remain sub-class people who have earned 12 credits in Puerto Rican Culture?

message: From the album title, and the description of Yanni being "an instrumental musician", I kind of assume he plays an instrument (or more than one), and/or sings. The article, however, omits him from the musical credits in the Band section, and credits him only as having composed and produced the performance. I checked some other sources, which also omit this information. Even if he doesn't perform on the album, I think it would be helpful to clarify that. Agyle (talk) 01:57, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Maniple (vestment)

message: Was the maniple made optional after the Council?  I thought its use in the Novus Ordo Mass was suppressed.
As the article says, only made optional.
The maniple is not somehow a vestment particular to the subdeacon, as is the tunicle; it is particular to those in major orders. (The subdiaconate is considered to be conferred by the ordinand receiving the chalice and paten from the bishop.) It is unreal to prescribe specific measurements to the maniple. The reference to “very conservative Catholic parishes etc.” is inappropriate political commentary and rather condescending!  The maniple is always worn during the Gospel (save for the Deacons of the Passion in Holy Week) but may be removed to preach.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Exiledpete (talk • contribs) 03:42, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

message: The "Pontifical High Mass" article (on Wikipedia) states:

thread_title: Kubaba and Queen Pu-abi

message: Because I have no actual proof, I can not add this information to the main page - my source is private. The title given to Puabi was not a hereditary queen nor a typical priestess. What it means was two-fold - first, she would not participate in or associate with the sacrificial religion at the time (which was incredibly brutal) and maintained a certain level of dignified cleanliness. Secondly, she was sexual - a participant in the tradition of sacred prostitution but without selling herself to customers. Her lovers were selectively accepted for power and ritual and she lured them to her with her high art, grace, and arcane prophetic talents. The man associated with her burial would not have been a traditional husband, but her ritualistic lover for special holidays and observances. 69.234.131.178 (talk)Astoreth  —Preceding undated comment added 08:48, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
