case in SCOTUS, another reason all the racists have gone crazy.....essentially a racist legal department.

Why did the university cave before the legal application was even heard next week?

From th link:

"Universities have the discretion under state law to relocate statues on their campuses. President Fenves' decision to move the Jefferson Davis statue to UT's Briscoe Center for American History is both the right course forward and consistent with the law. We are confident we will move ahead with these plans."
