Charlotte Simmons Dubious Claims

I put a 'citation needed tag' on the comment that I Am Charlotte Simmons was praised by 'many college students' for 'accuracy and focus,' but honestly the statement itself, and the ones following it, are vague and weasely and probably can't be corrected in their current form.

I deleted 'ivy league' from the setting of the novel and replaced it with 'prestigious': the fictional university has scholarship athletes, much like Duke and Stanford (prestigious, but not Ivy), which do not exist in Ivy League schools.

This is a cat on the article but it's mentioned nowhere in the text, as far as I can tell -- should it be removed? jp×g 🗯️ 16:08, 26 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
