Oyster Bay High School has a few notable alumni. Among them are "Gravity's Rainbow" author Thomas Pynchon. actress Heather Matarazzo, and Sonic Youth guitarist Lee Ranaldo . I'd say they all deserve a mention on this page, since they are all pretty famous in their field, and all graduated from OBHS.

How could Theodore Roosevelt have laid the cornerstone of the highschool, if the cornerstone says 1926 (i think) when T.R. died in 1919? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 137.146.142.84 ( talk) 04:13, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
The list of colleges attended by OBHS alumni seems like a superfluous laundry list. Since official discussions for deletion are usually about entire articles, I think this talk page is a sufficient venue to discuss the removal of this unnecessary section. AdamKidabra 09:34, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
Information was included in this article under false pretence. The website which much of the content was taken from (and which has "granted permission" for its content to be included) lists WIKIPEDIA (the Oyster Bay wikipedia article) as the only source under its bibliography. This is a violation of one of the fundamental policies of wikipedia which states that articles cannot cite wikipedia as a source for information. Further, the website that has granted permission for the inclusion of all this questionable content is an audio tour, with no written content. The lack of any specific documented sources for so much elaborate and detailed information is even more cause for more question and concern over validity as well as possible copyright violations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.1.48.46 ( talk) 00:38, 25 May 2009 (UTC)
