First computer-science department in the United States[edit]

The article claims that CMU created the first computer-science department in the US. However, this claim seems incorrect; the CMU Computer Science Department was established in 1965, according to the page Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science, after the Purdue CS department was established in 1962.[1] Thatsme314 (talk) 22:03, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Qatar campus[edit]

Various IP addresses have been warring to exclude criticism of the Qatari campus from the article. While some of this criticism is surely due, I think what is there may be a little overwrought. I think we should follow the Washington Post more closely, which presents a nuanced picture. Gulf News gives space to a minor Qatar critic. The HuffPost article is WP:RSOPINION. Disclosing that I worked for another educational institution in Qatar for a time. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 07:26, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
