Hi I'm Grammarxxx ^{(What'd I do this time?)} and I'll be conducting this review. At a first look it look's pretty good, hopefully we can get this up to par.

Comments

Lede is very weak, it should be a summary of the main aspects of the article

Decide on a percent style: (per cent; percent; %)?

Many dead links, you can find the list here.

A good amount of the article is unreferenced, with entire paragraphs without citation.

Too many pictures! Use only pictures which compliment the article, no need for every campus building on here. And feel free to have some on the left and just not the right.

Condense the Foggy Bottom section and expand the Mount Vernon section.

Condense many sections of the Student life section, to long and some too short.

In the off chance you're good with Wikimedia, could you change the seal so it blends with the infobox?

Maybe use columns for the Greek Life organizations, instead of just a wall of blue text.

Condense the Men's basketball section and add to the Football section. I know it's been disbanded but I'm sure more can be added than it just saying "they sucked, that's why they're not there anymore".

Clean up the Notable alumni, faculty, and degrees section, instead of just having lists of people maybe organize them into fields or focus on a few.

The Notable alumni, faculty, and degrees section has Alumni, Faculty, but no degrees section?

In the references decide on a style of date: (January 21, 2013; 2013-21-01; 2013/1/21)?

Result

Due to a lack of work, I am now failing this article. Grammarxxx ^{(What'd I do this time?)} 05:44, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
