They've come after Stephen D. Lee.
Welp. Here we go.
I have friends who are supporting this. I do not.

How about Dr. Holmes gets his own statue somewhere prominent on campus? The first university president Lee needs to be recognized. Are we just going to ignore his tenure? Did we not exist as a scholastic entity at the time?
There needs to be more dialog and less demand.

You can find a change.org petition for anything.

People were talking about this 15 years ago when I was a student. It's not like this is some shocking new development.

FWIW, I support changing the flag. I don't support removing the statue of S.D. Lee. I do support putting up a statue of Holmes somewhere around the Drill Field. Maybe near the Union?

Not a new development, but there is undeniably a new rabidness/energy in the activism, depending on whose ox is being gored.

Just because you don't remember it or didn't hear it doesn't mean that people didn't talk about it.

I would bet that most of these people think it’s Robert E Lee.*

Does the Reflector recap classroom debates and assignments? Private conversations? Will this petition even make it in the Reflector?

For what it's worth, I support changing the flag and keeping the bust of President Lee. And the name on Lee Hall.
