Change The Name Of Forrest Hall MTSU!

"Why should she find the Confederate flag outside of textbooks and museums?" Lets make our own history.

Yup. Gonna get right on this. It should be changed to Trump Hall. Sheep.

I don't even attend MTSU (Univ.OfMem freshman) but it was one of choices so I'll gladly sign for this change.

I distinctly remember when I learned about Forrest Hall- it was when I was flying over for a college tour. I went from being excited to explore the campus to having grave reservations about attending school in the South.

As a middle Tennessean I am appalled that MTSU would continue to have a building named after Forrest.

I support the pushing for a name change!!

I go there and I was appalled at the name for the building and who he was.

As a student of MTSU, I believe that this needs to change. #timedoesntstall

Please change the name of that building.

The name should have been changed years ago. This is ridiculous.

As a university is always striving to progress and move forward, we have to change the name otherwise we are always going to be behind.

Please, take it down. It is very offensive, and causes pain to many of your paying students who have to see this every day while they are trying to get an education. Murfreesboro should be known as a place of respect, dignity, and progression.

As a TBR university graduate and former staff member, I demand that Forrest Hall and any other similarly named TBR buildings be changed to honor people worthy of our esteem. There is no justifiable reason for the honoring of white supremacists on public campuses and buildings.

It's not appropriate

I am not a student of your university. However, I hope you will consider my signature on this petition. I found it through a link on my hometown TV station's website. Perhaps in deciding whether to rename your ROTC hall you might consider that this story has been picked up by the media and is being broadcast at least as far as Fort Worth, Texas. In my opinion, having your ROTC hall named for a person who was an officer in an army that committed treason against the USA and was also a leader in a racist terrorist organization certainly does not portray your university in a good light.

#NoConfederateCampus Now is the time!

I'm an alum. and I'm sorry to say that I didn't realize we had a building named after this man on our campus. This should have been changed years ago.

It has been written that "we were moving mountains long before we knew we could." I say to you, use the power of your positive energy and move these mountains of hatred, racism, disgrace. Once and for all, remove all imagery of Nathan B Forrest from the campus of Middle Tennessee State University, a public institution for all citizens. There is no honor in Forrest's legacy of human trafficking and slave trading (the buying and selling human beings); no honor in a heritage and culture of human bondage and slavery, which has inflicted a terrible cancer in the body of this land for much too long. Move these mountains. Finally, be encouraged, for "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice." Sylvester Brooks
