U.Md. president recommends renaming Byrd Stadium

WASHINGTON — University of Maryland’s president is recommending a new name for the school’s stadium after its namesake has been accused of being racist.

On Monday, University of Maryland President Wallace D. Loh issued a statement recommending “Byrd Stadium” be changed to “Maryland Stadium.” The Board of Regents will consider the request at its Dec. 11 meeting.

If approved, the university will memorialize Harry Clifton “Curley” Byrd in one of the main libraries, Loh says. Also, he says the university will institute a five-year moratorium on changing honorific building names.

Brown shirts implementing Moochelle's "Barack is going to change our history" statement - useful academic idiots spending other people's money for idiotic things, and then changing the rules so nobody else can.

Abe Lincoln was a "Racist", read his speeches, and look at his plan for sending blacks back to Africa.
Why don't they go after him?
He even made a couple of black jokes the day of his assassination.
One had to do with all of the freed black bowing and kissing his hands. (kinda reminds me of when Obama was doing the same thing)
All of the founders of this country were "Racist", so what, it is history, you can't change it, you move on.

Every "Malcolm x" street needs to be renamed, and any statues of monuments of him demolished. He was an admitted racist.

Martin Luther King was a proven Whore-master, all streets, parks, and schools need to have his name removed too!

You benefit from the man and don't want to acknowledge him? There is nothing worse I can say about someone than the fact that they are unthankful to their benefactor.
Want to rename it to spite the man I suggest you give the money back to his family and then look into the depths of your depraved souls and pick a name ....I could suggest a few but will refrain.
