[quote=Anonymous]This is a cop-out designed to make the name change as minimally disruptive as possible. I actually had joked that they'd propose this before they even came out with the list of possible names, only to find the joke was on me when August Wilson was on it. August Wilson is certainly deserving of having a high school named for him, but the only reason a school in D.C. — where he has no real cultural connections — is choosing the name is because it's the same last name as Woodrow Wilson's.
