Mary Washington vs. the University of Geico - I guess I'm doing a round on minor Virginia state colleges. This time, I found a Post article on the possible renaming of Mary Washington College, ne the Virginia State Teachers College. This co-ed institution has expanded to include a Univ. of Phoenix-like graduate and professional campus called the James Madison Center. (We love our historical figures here in the Old Dominion.) Now as the school ponders the future of its expanded role, it has broached the subject of another name change. While the alumni/ae are up in arms, the progressives have found an ally in the men's athletes and their coaches who, surprise surprise, have issues about playing for a "girls' school." Maybe we've got a ways to go yet on women's lib, huh?
