"No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffusd and Virtue is preservd. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant,and debauchd in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders." --Samuel Adams (letter to James Warren, 4 November 1775)

The Nichols' compromise has been orchestrated to appear reasonable. The truth is that it is self-serving and, once again, was discussed only with those politically correct interest groups that were supportive in the first place. I doubt that Nichols will be dealt with by the Board of Visitors because they are the appointees of two successive Democratic governors. At this point, the only was for this situation to be changed is for the Alumni to withhold funds or for Nichols to voluntarily resign.
I agree, Bob and that is what many people are doing now. However, the Save The Wren Cross group is finding a lot of reporting going around regional states about this issue and most of it is not all that sympathetic to the university president.
