UW Students Honor Pappy Boyington After All...

After last month's debacle, with anti-war-indoctrinated college kids
refusing to honor Medal of Honor winner (and UW alumnus) Pappy
Boyington, it's nice to see that reason has prevailed in Washington
State:

Student Senate Approves Memorial for Medal of Honor Alumni
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The UW Student Senate passed a resolution April 4 that endorses a
campus memorial to UW alumni/attendees who have received the Medal of
Honor while in the military. The resolution passed on a vote of 61 to
14 with 13 abstentions. The action came after a Feb. 7 vote that tabled

a motion favoring a memorial to UW alumnus Gregory "Pappy" Boyington,
'34, a Marine fighter pilot who received the Medal of Honor during
World War II. That vote led to a wave of protests across the nation,
including more than 300 e-mails to the UW.
