Princeton University President Christopher Eisgruber announced Saturday the institution will remove President Woodrow Wilson's name from its public policy school and a residential college.
What Eisgruber is saying: "The trustees conclude that Woodrow Wilson's racist thinking and policies make him an inappropriate namesake for a school or college whose scholars, students, and alumni must firmly stand against racism in all its forms."
"Wilson's racism was significant and consequential even by the standards of his own time. He segregated the federal civil service after it had been racially integrated for decades, thereby taking America backward in its pursuit of justice."
The state of play: Princeton's board of trustees voted to remove the name Friday.The policy school will now be known as the "The Princeton School of Public and International Affairs."

How is Yale ducking the name change?

I've never understood why Republicans and Conservatives haven't attacked harder on Wilson directly. The guy is still a hero to progressives but was undeniably racist...

Wait until The New York Times discovers that New York was named after the Duke of York, a slave trader.
https://dailycaller.com/2017/08/17/new-york-is-named-after-a-horrendous-slave-trader/
The Duke of York, who later became King James II of England (and James VII of Scotland), created Britain’s greatest slave empire known as the Royal African Company, which transported between 90,000 and 100,000 African slaves to the Caribbean and American colonies between 1672 and 1689.
Will the paper change its name?

I still squarely blame the media as the primary factor behind all of the discord. The media will never see it that way because it’s composed of corporations seeking revenue and individuals in the media seeking ratings and fame.

Yes, and as Bret Weinstein pointed out in this afternoon's "Darkhorse" podcast, those in the media as well as those in the Masters of the Universe Google/Twitter etc. are relatively new college graduates, indoctrinated through their respective School of Education, and now making decisions as to what is allowable.
As for Loki's mention of the Russians, wasn't it Khruuuschev that stated the U.S. would rot from within, or something to that effect? Paging Renauda. . .
