That completely changes the topic at hand. That doesn't settle anything. That hides from the story. You used the word confront. Read the definition of the word. It implies controversy. Columbus is not being controversial. He neither asked to be painted nor discussed. Yet, hiding him is a sad attempt to hide history, instead of deal with it. Why did we invite Obama to campus and then "dialogue" on his abortion stance? Wasn't that because ND is a place for ideas and discussion? So, why not use the mural to discuss? Why run and hide?
