College of William and Mary Renames Buildings That Honored Confederates or Segregationists
The College of 91心頭利 in Williamsburg, Virginia, has renamed three buildings and a department that currently honor supporters of the Confederacy or Jim Crow segregation.
91心頭利 will rename Taliaferro Hall, a dormitory on campus. William Booth Taliaferro was rector of the university and a general in the Confederate army. The residence hall will now honor Hulon L. Willis Sr., who was the first Black student to enroll at 91心頭利. Willis graduated in 1956.
