Yep, if we want to go all in with political correctness, you can’t have a college named for Washington & Lee. They have to rename it entirely.

Obama & Travyon University????

Assuming the Left fully realizes its goal of completely transforming American society, rest assured the university's name will be changed, with not only Lee's name but that of Washington as well, removed. The Bolsheviks accomplished this in Russia, as well as destruction of monuments from the Tsarist era and particularly churches. The French revolutionaries tried a similar tactic, but did not have eight decades to destroy the social fabric of France, as the Communists had in the case of Russia.

In Texas, few schools whose teams are called "Rebels" display the Confederate battle flag any more. It is way less common to see license plates, bumper stickers, etc., even in rural areas, that display the flag, than was the case 30-40 years ago. No law restricting its use has been passed, but fear of retaliation, social pressures, and the dying off of older generations have taken their toll.

Revolution in slow motion is what we are witnessing.
