Elihu Yale, after whom the university was named, was a slave-trader.

Shouldn’t Yale be renamed Malcom 10 university? Or something?

Brown University is named after a family, some of whom were also slave traders.

Leland Stanford was rabidly anti-Chinese, as were most people back then. They need to strip his name off the university. They already de-named U.C. Berkeley’s law school, Boalt Hall, because of an anti-Chinese speech given by its namesake.

I wonder what Washington and Lee University will do with its name. Not only is it a Virginia university, it also has two names that offend the left.

Shouldn’t the democrat party change their name or disband after their slave owning past?

Faber College has a nice ring to it.
