Vanderbilt Ends Racism . . . .

[redcliffsw]

The hall was first named in 1935, after a $50,000 donation from the United Daughters of the Confederacy. Now Vanderbilt will be paying $1.2 million to the original donorship group to rename the hall. That's $1.2 million that could endow several minority scholarships, but instead it's being used to eliminate the university's connection to the history of its state, city and region. In so doing the university will actually be sandblasting away reference to the word confederacy on the building which is, you know, exactly what terrorist organizations do to historical relics they don't approve of in the Middle East.

Dear Tennessee Division UDC,

$1.2 mil will buy a whole mess of battle flags...starting with a couple of big ones right next to Vandy.

Just sayin...
