So Much for History at Hopkins

How ironic that a group which uses it's own time and money to preserve history will get the cold shoulder from one of the most prestigious universities in the world.

A word to Hopkins: no matter what you think is correct, you can't change what happened through your politics.

Don't think this is unique to Hopkins, either; most universities (and I've worked at a couple of them) are so far left as to be considered extremist.

With this in the news, doesn't it make you wonder about 1), their commitment to diversity of ideas, and 2), the veracity of what they teach?

Hopkins balks at Confederate banner -- baltimoresun.com:

"Hopkins has informed the Maryland divisions of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Sons of Confederate Veterans that it will not rent space to them. The Jan. 17 event is scheduled for only a few days before the inauguration of the nation's first African-American president. The university received complaints after the march last January and says that it no longer wants to see the Confederate flag flying on campus."
