Sorry! Real life got to a point where I couldn't take WP seriously. Amerique^dialectics 06:14, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wow! I am impressed and very pleased with your recent edits and changes to the UC Riverside page. Keep going! :-)

I hear you about the suggestions vs. real editors. And it's Wikipedia, you can't really get in anyone's way. I appreciate your edits. I do worry that bringing in the Royalists to the Parliamentarians here might be too much info, but I guess I'll see how the FAC reviewers feel about it. About the Jesuits, I've tried to flesh out the exact connection between the school and the church, which is through the school governance by having Jesuits at every level of organization. So I want to note that there is a board that runs the school, but Jesuits have some influence over that too. I know there's still lots to do on the history article, but I do cover the founding in detail because there was a bit of an edit war with users who felt 1634 needed to listed be the founding date. Thanks for your wishes with regard to the FAC. It seems there is a lot to do yet, so feel free to sink your teeth in where you can.--Patrick 21:47, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Amerique, I believe that the U.S. News & World Reports figures are correct. I am pretty sure that the UCR magazine is only accounting for private donations and not taking in account the cumulation made from major private companies and community institutions.

There's been some discussion of this at Talk:University of California, Irvine#Endowment again. Gogo Dodo has replaced the US News figures across the UC campus articles with figures with UC references. I find it perplexing that US News would over-report UC endowments, as conceivably they would also get their information from the UC, but there doesn't seem to be another possible conclusion. No way has UCR's endowment shot up over 400% in less than a year. Amerique^dialectics

Also, the ref I listed from the UC Regents Office of the Treasurer provides a breakdown of the endowment consistent with the UCR magazine's account. [1] Amerique^dialectics 19:08, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
