Calhoun



FOR change


Calhoun said that slavery is a positive good.
Discomfort of 400 people living in a building named for a defender of slavery.
Ugly looking dude.
Create opportunity to honor someone new.
Changing the name will pacify more people than will be offended.



Against changing the name

Will it truly solve the problem we are facing in our society
More students associate the name Calhoun with their community than with the actual person.

Might set a precedent for renaming other things at Yale.
