[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a kid at Wilson and could not care less about the name. I found funny that they had to look for another guy called Wilson instead of changing the name completely. I found the statement semi-dumb and kind of annoying when it says after years of work. I really think there are more important things, like assuring that all kids are well educated and ready to become adults who can go to college and find good jobs. I agree with the poster above, just give numbers and call it a day[/quote] I'm shocked that people don't think the name matters. Woodrow Wilson was a profound racist- he re-segregated the federal government after reconstruction and was a vocal proponent of the KKK. For students--particularly African-American students--of the school, the name change is a very good thing.[/quote]
