What did Middleton have to do with racism?

How about just implode Middleton and build an updated library that actually fit the architecture of campus. The thing is a monstrosity

The subsequent meeting between Patton and Middleton was one of the most fateful of the Battle of the Bulge. Perhaps uniquely, it was the soft-spoken, bespectacled subordinate, Troy Middleton, who convinced the impatient Patton that the main highways leading into Bastogne must be severed; that German strongholds around the city must be retaken, and the highway/rail center denied to the enemy.
Patton not only listened; he became a total convert: especially as developments validated Middleton’s tactical vision. Patton himself subsequently extolled the plan as “tactical prescience”, and wrote to Middleton late in the war: “Your decision to hold Bastogne was a stroke of genius.”

Meh. Dude doesn’t deserve a library. Let’s name it after Raz.

The campanile is a monument to WW1 dead students. But monuments don't mean shite to these crazy mofos

Miller shall henceforth be named Black 1 and Herget will Be Black 2. You can workout out at Black 3, for,early known as the U Rec, which is completely racist.

Why is the name of a WWII vet and a university president being removed?

How dare a war hero and LSU president from 60 years ago not be as progressive as someone alive today!
Burn it down.

Great post. There hasn't been a leader at LSU who can come close to the intelligence, bravery and leadership of Middleton.

That letter posted above.
Basically wanted to keep things segregated. The dorms, recreation, athletics... in the name of L.S.U.
