Thanks to all who shared their views about this topic

I am guessing a few alumni expressed some views about their willingness to continue contributing to the future of this dishonorable institution.

The moment of silence should be at 11AM. Veteran’s Day, (Armistice Day) 11th month, 11th day, 11th hour.

UVA Pres. Jim Ryan base salary is $750,000. He should be fired for such an unpatriotic dumba$$ “mistake”.

My father rests in Arlington National Cemetery. They gave me the folded flag.

When that young female officer handed me the flag that had covered my father’s coffin, I understood what America is.
I will never surrender.

They presented it to my Grandmother. She went through one of the most difficult things anyone can endure - living to see one’s own child die.

I’ve always been very grateful for the final dignity afforded to my father, who served as a Marine in the Pacific, during WWII.
