[quote=Anonymous][quote]Discriminatory names aren't common sense. JEB Stuart and Stuart are both unacceptable. [/quote] Seriously? Why is "Stuart" discriminatory? Because it's not your choice? No one is honoring anyone with the name. It is common sense to save money and confusion. And, it was suggested in the spirit of compromise. Not to honor Jeb Stuart, but to respect the fact that most people indicated they preferred to keep the name. And, no, they are not racist just because they formed an attachment to the school they attend or attended. Changing the name takes that away. And, how is a name "discriminatory" in any case? Did the name cause you to lose a job? Did the name cause you to make less money? Did the name exclude you from something? Were you forced to sit in the back of the class? Please explain. [/quote]
