Harry Reids alma matter is removing his name from a school building after citizens and alumni lobbied the school president and pledged more than $40,000 to the cause. Concerned citizens lobbied Southern Utah University president Scott Wyatt months ago for the change, but he has only now decided to remove the name out of respect for the Senate majority leader, Utahs The Spectrum reports. I didnt want to offend him in any way, he explained. Cedar City Councilman Paul Cozzens told The Specter he received $40,000 in pledges to remove the Nevada senators name in just five days. These people in Nevada do not espouse to Reids political philosophies, he said, and they told me they would not support the university or send any more of their children there
so long as Harry Reids name remained. The school attached Reids name to the Outdoor Center expecting donations from Reid and his friends, The Specter reports, but those donations have not materialized. Apparently torn between his desire for financial support from alumni and his desire for theoretical donations from Reid and his friends, Wyatt decided to remove his name from the Outdoor Center, but attach it to a new building the Harry Reid Center. We have not received any money yet for
that building, Wyatt told The Specter, but added that Harry Reid has a lot of good qualities that could be used to develop a great program and center.

Umm...no, he does not.
Translation, Dear Harry, Money talks Bullsh!t walks. Have some of your mob guys donate a few million and we can build you a center.
This guy must be a moonbat leftie academic who would love to be Harry's boyfriend, but Harry isn't playing.
They were getting real tired of people asking , “Who is Harry Reid” ?
I didn't know they still used outhouses in Nevada........
I didnt want to offend him in any way,
...Reid certainly has offended Americans often enough. Usually several times a day.
Good! It could not happen to a worse jerk!
Removed his name from the building?
Who did the actual removal? Kruger Industrial Smoothing?
Just imagine the MSM orgy that would result if a prominent Republican had the same thing happen to him.
If, for example, a building at the University of Wisconsin named for Scott Walker was renamed after alumni protests.
A new building for Harry. How many stories can you build on an outhouse?
Maybe they could name the outhouse behind the Obama Golf Library after Harry Reid.
I guess “Dingy Harry Hall” wasn’t a good name for an academic building. I would have changed the name too.
It is past time to start boycotting Las Vegas and Reno, until those controlling those cities and casinos get rid of Reid.
As long as the first floor is reserved for him and the others empty out on his head, I’m hoping it’s hundreds.
Huzzah for the folks in Southern Utah!
I think some may be willing to support “The Harry Reid Defecation & Urination Building” to be ERECTED in the VERY FAR LEFT of the campus, next to the concession stand. :P
“Southern Utah University president Scott Wyatt” apparently has no principles or core beliefs and will do anything for money.
In the world of Academe, this is a backhanded insult. His name has been sent to Coventry, as it were.
