I”ll start with an apology for being so late. May I propose ” University Columbus” as the future name for our local university. Please no “the” or “of.” The name of course is gender and racial neutral. The name will be listed among all other schools as more of an equal than one with a “person” name attached to it. Additionally, this is a once in a lifetime to honor our beloved city. Do we dare miss this chance?
