GA Review
[edit]GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the History section, "In 2005", it would be best if a comma was placed after 2005. Same thing in the Facilities section, the first sentence.

Hagerty library in West Philadelphia. That same year Drexel received approval from the Pennsylvania Department of Education to start the school. The decision to launch a law school with cooperative education in a city with five other law schools was based on a demand for graduates with immediate experience, with the president of Drexel University, Constantine Papadakis, saying that employers "like to hire a graduate and have them immediately be useful"?

Response:
- I've added the indicated commas.
- I've also cited another reference to (hopefully) clarify the 'founding' part from the 'why this school is needed' part.
- I've tried to reword this so it doesn't sound so POV'ish, I'm not sure if I've succeeded. --ImmortalGoddezz (t/c) 23:12, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
