Hail, Hale!
Why not “Jale”? Then every ex-con could say they went to “Jale”. /s
I suggest Tamil, the name of the slave boy.
Yeah, well, aside from the whole getting caught thing, and the specious last words, and being considered a patriot....
Hey, how about John Sydney McCain III University?
I thought they were going for Alan Hale, in honor of Jonas Grumby.
What do they do with Columbia University named after Columbus?
Do they now name it after that great American explorer, Malcolm X University?
and they already say, I didnt go to Penn St I went to the State Pin.
What about the name — United States of America? Doesn’t ‘America’ have an association with Christopher Columbus?
Everything must go. All sales are final.
Hale... OK, and even rhymes with the original name, “Yale.”
But, in these days of anti-whiteness, never “Pale.”
Or Alan Hale Sr, loved his pea-shooting.
Did you know he played Little John in 1922 and 1938?

Our family has a very close connection to a family with last name Hale. I don’t think any of them went to Y/Hale.

How about if we make the name of the school “Whale”? That would be a good way to honor all the large sea mammals that were hunted worldwide and persecuted so women could wear whale-bone corsets, and so on ad nauseam.
It is hard to know when people are joking (unless the /s is invoked).
I am NOT JOKING.
And change the pretentious rowing team to spear-chucking.
How about Kale to honor Vegans.
Change it to Male and make it a homo only school. The liberals wouldn’t know how to react
I am offended by the goofy wigs.
Sort of off topic:
I remember reading that Hale was the worst possible choice for a secret mission.
It seems that he was like a rock star in the colonies. People he never met, knew him on sight.
He had the reputation of being the most handsome man in the colonies and all the women in New Haven were in love with him.
He was calling himself by another name when apprehended. While being takin-in, someone in the crowd yelled, Nathan...its Nathan Hale!!
