Geraldo Rivera ✔ @GeraldoRivera Resigned yeterday as Associate Fellow of #CalhounCollege at #Yale. Been an honor but intolerant insistence on political correctness is lame. 8:42 AM - 12 Feb 2017 · Edgewater, NJ 340 340 Retweets 1,133 1,133 likes

A now-minor CelebuTard with an ‘honorary’ degree throws a snit and quits.
*YAWN* Jerry Rivers? Get over yourself, already!

Heard today “Yale” was founded by and named after a rather pernicious slave trader who mistreated slaves and others.

Don’t be a jerk. There may be plenty of Hispanic conservatives on these forums that you turn off because you want to act like a shock jock. Grow up Howard Stern wannabe :/

But by all means, hit us with a DU whine... PC uber alles!

I watched 60 minutes years ago when they profiled Grace Murray Hopper. She was quit a women. I don’t agree with changing the name of Calhoun College but at least they renamed it after an awesome women and not some SJW putz.

Yes. While Calhoun was reportedly one of the better slave owners, Elihu Yale was known as a cruel owner. And, Yale was fired from his high post in India for corruption.
So, they should rename the entire university. How about Political Correctness U.?

I don't know that ad hominem ever works, but even so, the "shoe" doesn't fit as Rivera is Jewish and Puerto Rican.
