seriously.... do you literally exist on hate?

It's one thing to have an opinion about someone or something;
it's entirely another to demonize a set of people and values entirely simply because they don't fit your political profile.
I think the point of both the OP and the poster who you responded to was simply to say,
"If all you've got to complain about is racism that is 100 years old, and quite literally, long-since buried,
then you seem quite silly with your over-wrought insistence and emotionalism on the issue."
Maybe you should look in the mirror, '79 -
seems a lot of hate coming through from you....
but much worse..
it's aimed at people who've not committed the sins that Tillman did.

Those who wanted Tillman removed to begin with. I'm sure CU will want to improve its national image and make a huge stance by naming it after some black woman or man who none of us have heard of. So during your search make sure to include black, Indian or Mexican AND Clemson. I'm sure your search will pop up Clyburn or some other worthless name but look between the silver lining. An American Indian who was a pilot in ww2 with Clemson ties will be your winner. Or the first black woman who graduated from CU? All the political correctness and double standards give me gas. So forgive me if I care less what it gets called. Daba Hall has a ring to it but I'm sure it will offend a Coot Fan who attends Clemson.

and sequentially rename all the buildings in the order that they were built. I know Hardin Hall was built first. Tillman was built either 2nd or 3rd.
Can't please everybody. Go ahead and remove all the statues too. If we continue down this path, eventually someone will call for the university to be renamed.

Main Hall or Old Main should be the logical choice. Maybe Veterans Hall for the outstanding military connections and service from this great institution.

There's a ring to that, but it sounds familiar for some reason. Some other school hasn't already taken that for a similar looking building, have they? Hmmm. . . .

Agree, call it "Old Main," and put a historical register tablet adjacent to explain Tillman's educational endeavors. The same could be done at Winthrop University. Those who want to remove history selectively are going beyond mere revision and ultimately their attitude will be seen as lacking context and in a large sense historical perspective. We cannot ignore or rewrite history just to suit an agenda.
By the way I teach college history courses in state.
Go Tigers!

why stop at Tillman. Rename the whole state
Jul 18, 2015, 1:41 PM
|
|
Rename Tiilman Hall to Al Sharpton Hall and while we are at it, change the name of Columbia to "Jackson" after South Carolina's favorite son Jessie Jackson. Also, rename Wade Hampton Boulevard to Malcom X Way and the Calhoun Memorial Highway to Louis Farakan Memorial Highway.
We should also change the name of the name of the state from South Carolina to "Guilty" and then offer to kick former senator Hollins out of the state as it was he who ordered the battle flag to be raised over the state house in 1962. We will also need to rename any and all buildings associated with Hollins to something more politically correct. Perhaps, after Jim Clyburn or Obama.
Regardless, we must expunge the names "Tillman, "Calhoun" and "Hollins" from all public road names, public buildings and parks throughout the state.
In return, we need a signed agreemen from all agitation groups that once this has been done, that they are satisfied and will go and promote division and bitterness somewhere else.

In all seriousness I like Old Main as it was before Clemson was blackmailed into making it Tillman Hall.....Or politicized as someone mentioned.
To go along with the fun jokes tho how about
#####* A$$ Hall for all the crying. Butthurt Hall The building formally known as Hatred Hall. The building formally known as Murderers Hall
My all time favorite is the Love Shack.
Just leave it Tillman or else history as we know it changes. Changing it may cause irreparable damage. You all saw Back to the Future.

Is it to early to call it Swinney Hall or even better Dabo Hall? No doubt the man has done great things for the university and is the kind of person that everyone should want their son to be like.

Clemson Seminary Education Building, Tiger Seminary Building, Dabo Tower, Rollins Tower, Spiller Building, Jordon Tower.
That's all I got, I'm sure if it's changed somebody could donate a bunch of money like the Duke alumni did and in turn we could name it after them.
Go Tiigers, no matter what we call it!!
It could just be called The Hall.
