Dima343:

Which reminds me: Do you guys know anyone who was turned off from the University just because Lee is in the name? Because I have to be honest, sometimes I think it hurts recruitment (especially minority recruitment)



Of course I can’t answer for all minorities, but sending D to a school named after General Lee would not be a deterrent for me. But sending her to a school that allows the public display of the confederate flag would be very difficult. Interestingly, W&L has sent D more recruitment literature than any other school.
