Cleanup[edit]

Stumbled on this article looking at "G" logos. This article needs serious cleanup. Anyone want to help out?

I have started some cleanup today, but it needs more to reach a "Start" level. Tighter writing, more wiki links, references and some photos would help. Aaron charles 03:02, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bold text'''What kind of classes are there

I want to be come a motivational speaker, is threr a class for that ?' —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.109.234.9 (talk) 04:46, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The president of the university is listed as Horace Judson; it links to the Wikipedia entry for Horace F. Judson. However, this is not the same person as the president of Grambling, Horace A. Judson. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JordanNY (talk • contribs) 18:44, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List of senior administrators[edit]

A colleague is insisting that this article include a list of senior administrators (e.g., vice presidents, interim vice presidents). Our guidelines for the content of college and university articles don't include this kind of information and I think that's for a good reason: readers don't need to know that information nor do they care about it. This is an encyclopedia article summarizing the entire history, organization, financing, and impact of this university, not a copy or adjunct to the university's own website or other publications.

Super Bowl performances?[edit]

According to this article on Super Bowl halftime shows: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_Bowl_halftime_shows

"Prior to the early 1990s, the halftime show was based around a theme, and featured university marching bands (the Grambling State University Marching Band has performed at the most Super Bowl halftime shows, featuring in six shows including at least one per decade from the 1960s to the 1990s)"

Is this true? If so, why isn't it in the article about the university? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:C6:CC00:32A0:9CFA:5D95:CD6A:D9AF (talk) 00:43, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
