George Mason University now fully occupies the Truland Building at its Arlington Campus. Campus management is asking campus faculty and students for suggestions about renaming the building. We call upon the Arlington campus administration, to honor Gordon Tullock, Professor Emeritus of the School of Law, by renaming the Truland building in his honor.

The feedback regarding this proposal has been thoughtful and consistently highlights the significant academic legacy of Gordon Tullock. I am currently organizing these endorsements to ensure they are presented effectively before the administration during the upcoming renaming process.

The level of support for this proposal is truly heartening. This momentum demonstrates how many people value the intellectual legacy Professor Tullock left behind at George Mason University. I intend to present this collective request to the administration for their formal consideration.

Yes!! He changed the way we look at public choice theory. This would be a perfect tribute to such a brilliant mind.

Gordon was a legend at GMU. It is about time the school honors his contribution to economics properly. Name the building after him already.
