Q1: Can you add a new field so that I can list an important person at a university?

A1: Probably not. To preserve due weight, there is consensus that only someone "essential to understanding the institution" should be listed. Normally, only one person — the head of the institution — qualifies for this, although in rare cases where top authority is shared jointly, two or (even more rarely) three people may qualify. All others should be mentioned in the body or just omitted. There are many existing fields for listing people. If you are working on a university with an unusual name for a top authority, the |head_label= parameter can be used to provide the name of the role and the |head= parameter can be used to provide the person in it. However, this method should not be used to list anyone other than an insitution's top authority.
