From The College Fix:

Back in September, John Carroll University near Cleveland, Ohio began looking into the role the school’s namesake — and Jesuits as a whole — played in the slave trade and other “racial injustices,” in addition to possible remedies.

JCU graduate Tim Gill says in a recent Cleveland.com op-ed that part of the school’s atonement should include changing the very name the institution, and increasing the black student population.
