Resigned yeterday as Associate Fellow of at . Been an honor but intolerant insistence on political correctness is lame.

 His ideas are repugnant but name change would shock who named John C Calhoun 1 of 5 "greatest"all-time senators in 1957

To judge a 200 yr old early 19th century historic figure by standards of the 21st century as is doing is more Orwellian than inspired

 Slavery was abhorrent sin.Will students now petition to change name of capital? was a slave holder as was


Geraldo Rivera announced Sunday that he resigned from his fellowship position at Yale University after the Ivy League school decided to rename a college named after 19th-century Vice President John C. Calhoun because of his support for slavery.

Mr. Rivera announced on Twitter that he officially resigned as an associate fellow of Calhoun College, which has been renamed to honor trailblazing computer scientist Grace Murray Hopper.
