The University of Washington's student senate rejects a memorial for UW alum, Gregory "Pappy" Boyington of Baa Baa Black Sheep fame.

Here are the meeting minutes. Truly unbelievable, including phrases such as "Jill Edwards didn't believe a member of the Marine Corps was an example of the sort of person UW wanted to produce" and "Ashley Miller commented that many monuments at UW already commemorate rich white men."

More on the issue here.

UPDATE:
Here is the original resolution.

Also, make sure you scroll to the bottom of the minutes so you can make sure and read the announcements. Otherwise you may miss the events that the leaders of the UW student body want to promote such as GBLTC drag show auditions, the Honors Croquet League, playing the "Privilidge Game", buying tickets for the Vagina Monologues and of course the ACLU meeting this Saturday.
