The only way the insanity poisoning higher education today will come to an end is if Boards of Trustees or state legislatures act. Administrators are clearly unable or unwilling to face down the barbarians so others must do so.

Amazing. Compare this to Duke where the President announced they were destroying the sculpture of Robert E. Lee preemptively before anyone staged a phone ginned-up violent demonstration. Lee’s statue appeared on the Gothic Chapel at the center of the campus. At Duke the President of the University is the Radical Leftist.

The administration at UNC and the local government had no intention of punishing anyone for this destruction. Luckily saner heads are in state government.

That’s part of it.

This statue is going back up and it will be under surveillance. Those moonbats arrested face felonies and have just pissed away their “college experience”.

As for the one that mentioned out of state participants.

I can almost guarantee it.

Good!!!! Someone is FINALLY getting this thing right!!!!

Faculty and other presumably “mature” persons who participated in the politically-correct vandalism should be especially ashamed of themselves!!!! And they should be held legally accountable as well!

Still amazes me that with all the film, phones and other security cameras, that the perps aren’t identified and arrested.

You think Chapel Hill police care? Hell no.

CORRECTION: This post originally identified the university as having made the decision to re-install the monument. This article has been amended to reflect that a member of the UNC Board of Governors declared that the statue would be re-installed, but that Chancellor Folt has yet to confirm the monument’s fate.

Title has been updated to "Confederate monument to be reinstalled on campus, UNC board of governors member says"
