Purpose of this article[edit]

Recent edits by User:Mak2407 indicate a failure to understand that this article should not be advertising for the college (still less including the editor's e-mail address). This is an encyclopaedia; the purpose of the article is to inform about the college, including providing a link to its website for those who want further information.

In addition, it doesn't make the college look good if the article is in poor English, full of abbrevs. and unnecessary capitalisation, and has a list of bare links by way of a gallery; I've copyedited it to look more professional and taken the time to group the pictures Mak2407 uploaded to Commons into a category there so that the article can have a Commons category link at the bottom where people can see them all (and so that people on Commons know what they are pictures of; the file names are very undescriptive).

So those are the reasons for my changes. The only material I have removed is repetition and the completely inappropriate advertising of how to apply. --Yngvadottir (talk) 12:41, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
