Pity Poor Princeton

I did not attend Princeton University, nor have I ever visited the campus. The closest connection I have is that before he met my mother, my late father once took one of Albert Einstein's secretaries on a date when that unparalleled genius had an office there. Now that august university is attempting to erase history by wiping the name of former US President Wilson from the campus. Yes, Princeton surely can do that, but it does not change the underlying history an iota. Wilson is among my least favorite US Presidents but scrubbing his name from things does not alter the past.
