Columbus Day Gone At Brown U.

April 14, 2009 – 9:12 am

Liberalism, political correctness, and stupidityÂ on the march

Brown University is taking the “Columbus Day” out of Columbus Day weekend.

The Ivy League school’s faculty voted Tuesday to establish a new academic holiday in October called “Fall Weekend.” The long weekend coincides with Columbus Day.

Hundreds of Brown students had asked the Providence school to stop observing Columbus Day, citing the explorer’s violent treatment of Native Americans. Reiko Koyama, a sophomore, says celebrating Columbus Day seemed inconsistent with Brown’s values

Kinda like with Christmas: they want the holiday to go away, but they still want the day off. Preferably paid.
