I removed the section on the University of Miami at the top of the article, as there was another section on it near the botton. I moved some trivia items to the end of the article. I also trimmed out some fat. As for the number of UM national championships, UM has done pretty well in recent years, but has a ways to go to catch Oklahoma or Notre Dame. -- Donald Albury 11:57, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
Separate from the football debate, it does seem to me that there is a bit too much flattery going on in regards to the University of Miami on this page. I don't deny that it is listed in well known and commonly cited rankings charts, but I think that some of the text here goes a bit overboard, and the citations don't necessarily back up the claims. For instance, there are two citations purportedly to back up the statement that the many UM academic programs 'are among the best in the world'. The first is a press release from UM stating that it received good rankings from the Princeton Review in two categories, but neither of them ('Diverse Student Population' and 'Students Pack the Stadiums') are related to academics. The second citation is a link to UM's own promotional material which does indeed declare that it is 'one of the nations leading research universities', but provides no external data to back it up. Beyond that, I don't know how to verify the claim at the outset that UM is a 'globally recognized' university, and where do we define the 'top tier' of US colleges and universities? On the USNWR rankings, which is probably the most 'authoritative' (if such a subjective thing as a college rankings list can be described as such), UM is #54. Does that really qualify for the 'top tier'? The text in this section seems rather biased and unverified. Cuffeparade 10:58, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
MiamiDolphins3, Primary education means the early years of school, and does not include high school. See Primary education. -- Donald Albury 01:23, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
The page layout, including the photo placements, are vastly improved. Nice job. MiamiDolphins3 01:14, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Here's a question: elevation? Which is it, 2m or 33ft? Mxzombie 03:26, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of February 11, 2007, compares against the six good article criteria:
When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. Thanks for your work so far. -- Alan.ca 09:26, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Another editor added the Kellogg MBA program in Miami as an educational item in this article about Coral Gables. Their edit suggested it was equivalent to the University of Miami. UM has ten thousand full time employees in Coral Gables. Kellogg has no employees. Kellogg flies the teachers and students in for one weekend a month over a two year period. This edit was reverted as spam. GroveGuy ( talk) 01:35, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
