Hello, I'm going to be doing this review as part of the July GA backlog drive. It should take me no longer than a week. Kimikel (talk) 01:38, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Review: @Ergo Sum: The article itself is very well-written and I could only find a couple things to clean up in that respect. As far as sourcing, there are a couple of small issues listed that should be fixed before this article is GA quality. Let me know if there are any concerns about my suggestions - Kimikel (talk) 21:55, 28 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Ergo Sum are you planning to get to this, and if not, should I close it out or can someone else address the review? Kimikel (talk) 22:07, 2 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I am. This week has proved a bit busy, but I aim to get to it in the next day or two. Thank you for the review. Ergo Sum 01:29, 4 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Well-written

Lead

"students, and Joyce" > students; Joyce

Early life

"in Dorchester neighborhood" > in the Dorchester neighborhood

Presidency

"While the regents, had" > While the regents had
"the controversial interviewees" > controversial interviewees

Verifiable

Spot check:

9: Verified
14: Verified
22: Verified
27 As far as I'm seeing, this only says that he requested they left by that date. That page does not give a date for their departure
38: this is a very close paraphrase. Rephrase sentence to avoid that
41: Source lists an "M. Seavey Joyce", I recognize it's probably a mistake but this should either be replaced with a source that mentions the correct person, or the fact should be removed entirely
