RE: Removing Confederate Generals portraits?
I don't know how long the pictures have been hanging, but graduates of the college like Patton, Bradley, and Eisenhower apparently had no problem with it. Another alumni of the college- General McAuliffe- who famously replied to the German request for his American forces surrounded at Bastogne to surrender with one word "Nuts!" - apparently had no problem with the pictures either. I think I will use the Generals reply to respond to the notion of taking down the pictures: "Nuts!"
