A bit of good news.

This just crossed my desk: From CNN, Yale University has decided to rename Calhoun College; which was named in 1933 to commemorate pro-slavery advocate, 7th US President and all around wanker John C. Calhoun. The University took the to me wonderful step of renaming the place after RADM (RTD) Grace Murray Hopper, one of America's first ever computer scientists.
If you are unaware of Admiral Hopper's career, see her biography here Here .
As one of my core interests has always been Computer science and engineering, I always admired Admiral Hopper. I even got the chance to meet her when I was in college. She even gave me a nano-second. (a piece of braided twisted pair wire about 10in long. ) A long delayed accolade for a brilliant mind and forerunner of Today's women. I tip my hat to Yale for taking this action.
