that"Wilson's racism was significant and consequential even by the standards of his own time".
Mr Eisgruber said Princeton had honoured President Wilson"not because of, but without regard to or perhaps even in ignorance of, his racism".
The longest serving US president

Absolutely pathetic.
By all means remove racist symbols, but afterwards let's get back to taking real actions to address racism which are currently taking place by the living.
I'm confused, when did the USA became part of the UK? Isn't UK news meant to about the UK? Or at least things that affect us?
Will this gesture politics change anything? I doubt it.
Why? Because they can't control their emotions when they see a name they don't like? Middle class privileged bourgeoisie elites
Ive cancelled my grandfather as well. He was a foreman in a factory that built navigational equipment for aircraft that were used to defeat literal Nazis, but he would often buy his cigars from the “p*** shop” I have removed all photos of him from my house.
George Washington was a slave owner. Time to take Washington off the dollar bill, chip him off Mount Rushmore, rename the City, District and State.
Hello my name is Marcos Francesco I'm from Italy a single father please follow me I promise to follow back
Removing this and that selectively from one’s history is a way of lying to generations to come.
Standing by for the pub of the same name in Carlisle to be next target in 5..4..3..2..
Ban rap music it promotes violence and drugs and sexism to poc ,
So re-write history so future generations make same mistakes. How about sortibg TODAYS slave trade - both black & white? Nope! Not interested - just atrack the long dead cause thats safe.
World has gone quite mad
And on it goes, the minority ruling the majority. This, like all other recent censorship has more than a whiff of Nazi Germany.
So what about Cleopatras needle...? Or Hadrians wall...? Those leaders accepted slavery as morally correct so do we destruct their legacies too?
This is yet another case of PC lunacy. How about asking the non-white students that have passed through the halls over the years if they would hand back their degrees because some snowflake today feels offended? I doubt they would as they have benefited from the education.
This is becoming tedious: why not go the whole hog and remove all of US history. Maybe then no one will complain......
all I can say to that revelation is that if Mr WILSON is deemed not PC then there are a lot more presidents who will be following him. commonsense is being replaced with stupidity.
How about a new rule: before you remove a name you have to agree on a new one. That should bring this movement to screeching halt, those who 'destroy' are rarely good at creating.
GOD is infinite number of correct things with one mistake only!! The mistake is death of life!! Professor Aman Tolla Hamda
It more than moving ppls.names it's a change of mind set
This is no different from what happened to china under the maoist regime, wiping away history to fit a bullshit agenda
When are they gonna remove Rap Music it don’t get much more offensive than that
john wayne is going too,apparently he's racist
Songs, films ,screen plays, documentrys,series,nursery rhymes. Might aswell remove all our history.IDIOTS
Wouldn’t America be better just removing the current president ?
You can't wipe history.? Just making all this PATHETIC
'....He also barred black students from Princeton while serving as university president and spoke approvingly of the Ku Klux Klan' the shit blowing up ! Where have you been till now ? And are you going to compromise for a few symbols ?
Me personally don't see the point of doing so,when we still have people going around kidnapping people of colour and still putting rope around their necks. You can limit the ways and believes of people but you will never change them if they don't wants to.
Thank God....now please remove anything named 'Truman' from your university, considering Truman murdered a million mostly women, children, and the elderly, to wave his tiny little weeny peeny at Stalin, AFTER the war was essentially OVER! OurHeroesAreMurderers .
Seriously STFU about America now BBC - This is World News - focus on the UK.
RIDICULOUS!!!!!!
Excellent...👏🏾
Revolutionary. 😐
Yale, right now.
SimpsonsQOTD ....... go nuts kid
They don't take the restrictions and guidelines seriously. Reopening makes the cases escalate quickly! Stay safe everyone. 🙏🏼
Why dont we erase all white related history replace them with black people I nominate oh Simpson and bill Crosby for starters
Not sure what I think about the scrubbing of names and destruction of statues but I know George Orwell is laughing his ass off over the whole mess.
Where do we stop? JFK airport? de Gaulle's actions led to hundreds of thousands of Algerians killed so by these rules that airport needs to be renamed.
PS, I AM GAY

Replace it with Tupac Shakur and have gang shootouts on campus every day for maximum diversity and inclusion.
Mrs Krabappel is gonna be devved.
