Proposed removal of Oxford Seminar from Education Section

In the education section there are currently two sentences that read:

"In 1988, Cornyn attended a two-week seminar at Oxford University, jointly hosted by the National Judicial College at the University of Nevada, Reno and Florida State University’s College of Law.[12] The seminar, held on the Oxford campus, was not academically affiliated with the university.[12]"

Unless the seminar was especially impactful upon Sen. Cornyn, this should probably be removed. It was not affiliated with the university, nor were degrees awarded, and it sounds like it was just a 2 week workshop. If it was just a two week training held within the city of Oxford, it does not sound notable. It is also important to note there is no "Oxford campus" in the American sense of the phrase; Oxford University has small colleges throughout the city, and apart from the main library, the exams building, and some administration and sports facilities, there isn't a main campus. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.160.101.47 (talk) 13:54, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
