I can assure you that almost all of us UVA grads (of all colors) are just fine with keeping TJ around. He's deeply woven into our school and always will be. His face is on my degree. We recognize all aspects (positive and negative) of that association. By the way, I highly recommend taking a tour of the Grounds and Monticello sometime if you have the chance.because no one warned anyone that once the Left went after Confederates, surely they would stop there and not go after Lincoln Washington and Jefferson...
They both do a great job (now) of telling all sides of the story, which is about as American as it gets. In the past, the story was definitely whitewashed -- which was simply inaccurate as a historical matter.
TBD what happens with W&L -- that's up to them. Personally, I'd keep Lee, since he served as president of the school and the name was changed back in 1870. So a very different thing than renaming some random middle school after REL in the 1950s as a way to show the black folks that Jim Crow was in charge.
P.S. Petey -- how's that Democrat wife of yours doing?
