Princeton to remove Woodrow Wilson's name from school for racist viewsPrinceton University has announced plans to remove the name of former President Woodrow Wilson from its public policy school because of his segregationist views, reversing a decision the Ivy League school made four years ago to retain the name. Before Woodrow Wilson became president of Princeton, the school was basically a glorified country club. He transformed it into one of America's elite universities. This is beyond stupid. The ignorant and selective application of modern moral and societal standards to historical figures continues.. Anyone familiar with 1984 and Demolition man recognizes the similarities to the society we live in today.. Now do Yale, you dopes.
