"The University is dedicated to the traditional Christian principles of inclusiveness and diversity." As I recall my studies of theology and United Methodist history and doctrine in seminary, those are NOT "traditional Christian principles." Twohlford 01:45, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I see no explanation of the cost of attending this university.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Zedshort ( talk • Zedshort) 00:14, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

A Businessweek article raised a number of challenges to High Point University's financial health, vendor relationships, marketing practices, and academics. An editor has headed the section discussing this "amenities" and moved it to the bottom of the page. This approach seems to be dismissive of the issues, and perpetuates the page being promotional in nature and being cited by site managers as an advertisement. Suggest the section be restored to original position, with a heading that reflects its content accurately. KnowledgeisGood88 ( talk) 14:13, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi again KnowledgeisGood88. The editor you're referring to, NcNative556, made that change here. As you and I have discussed previously, I'd be willing to support either keeping it named "Amenities" and positioning it between the "Location" and "Academics" sections, or changing the heading to something more critique-oriented but keeping it near the bottom as is the custom with sections like that in most articles. I'm just re-posting the comment here on the Article's talk page in case you'd like to discuss that further with me, and/or in case other editors would like to swing by and offer opinions. On an unrelated note, I'd like to thank you for your cordial approach in starting a discussion here. AzureCitizen ( talk) 17:38, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

It seems to me like the Career and professional development section, admission section, and ranking section are all flagrantly promotional in tone. In history it converges on hostile in tone when comparing to Davidson, Duke, Etc. Thanks. Lex9000 —Preceding undated comment added 23:14, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

I've gone through and attempted to rephrase text portions that seemed overly promotional, as well as collapsing some subsections that were overly simple or sparse. In it's present form, the article is not much different now from most other Wikipedia articles on similar small universities. Is there anything else remaining that stands out as being too promotional? If so, please point to the specific text in question. Thanks, AzureCitizen ( talk) 18:40, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

The location section is not helpful. Miles v. hours distant are inconsistent and the result is nonsensical. In a description of the student body, it says that students come from more than 50 states. The reference to USDofE financial evaluation lacks clarity. ' 00:06, 6 July 2022 (UTC) 2603:6011:2546:1A00:5ED:11E2:2471:3F22 ( talk)
