University of Cinncinati removes founder's name

Apparently he owned slaves.

I am wondering when someone at the University will take a history course and learn about Cinncinatus.  This could get messy.

Of course! I wonder when someone will remember that Washington owned slaves.

Oh, they know. I think they also know that if they propose changing the name of a State and the name of the National Capitol city it will bring negative attention to their actions. I'd be willing to bet that most people don't even know this is going on.
