        What a shame . Maybe they don't teach history of America at Duke or they have dumb students

        If it was so obviously offensive, how in the world has the school's administration allowed it to stand this long?

        Why should the name not b changed? The Duke family were great cultivators of tobacco which killed many thousands of Americans. That's ok?

        This is a very fair question. Also, shouldn't money accepted from any tyrants be returned by the school... at inflation adjusted levels?

        Robert E. Lee was a hero who did all in his power to fight for the south. America had been a better place if he had succeed. God bless CSA📿.

        So then what's wrong with putting these things in museums? That way the history can actually be taught in context.

        I can agree with that. Sad fact is that the conversation is so divided in the US. Open conversation with respect and tolerance is needed.
