Bias in NYU tenure section
editI believe the article's description of Andrew Hamilton's tenure at NYU feels unbalanced to me. The majority of the description is currently spent condemning his initial tenure as disastrous, owing to a decline in one source of university rankings. Beyond being a questionable benchmark in itself (especially when not compared to other rankings, see e.g. ARWU, which puts it on its 2011 level: http://www.shanghairanking.com/World-University-Rankings/New-York-University.html), I believe the section as it stands is far, far too harsh, particularly given the limited evidence and extremely limited influence over it during his eight-month tenure.

- Agreed, and the sourcing is also poor. I have deleted the final section. Jonathan A Jones (talk) 19:37, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
