Except they haven't because Ole Miss has pretty well eradicated most all traditions that were associated with racism at this point.

But it's clear some people can't ever be sated. Especially those who are so concerned with the perception of others that they're actually harming the University by continuing to bring it up.

Ole Miss has removed Col Reb., From Dixie With Love where students yelled the South Will Rise Again, and Confederate flags from football games. How was it that ANY of those traditions were helpful to Ole Miss? Please explain. I just dont get it.

While Col. Reb and FDWL didnt bother me, I'm just not seeing how people whine over losing those things.

I mean can some of you not see how having a officer of the Confederate army as a mascot might not be a great thing in 2013 or how waving Confederate flags at football games might not be a good thing.

Some of you are arguing a point that you arent even taking into consideration. You are saying that we shouldnt change things because some feelings are hurt. Well why shouldnt we change things because YOUR feelings are hurt??? It goes both ways.
