Updated MIT seal and logo

MIT has updated its logo and seal designs. Can one of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology page owners please contact me so I can provide the updated files? My office manages MIT's brand system. Thank you. Bblender (talk) 13:59, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

GA concerns

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria due to the two orange "more citations needed" banners from 2021 and the "update needed" banner at the top of "Faculty and staff". Is anyone interested in addressing these concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 22:36, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
