Letter from President Sidney A. McPhee on the Forrest Hall Renaming Petition Decision
-
Description
-
President Sidney A. McPhee issued this letter to the campus community after the Tennessee Historical Commission denied MTSU’s petition to rename Forrest Hall. McPhee explains that pursuing an appeal would require hiring outside legal counsel at significant cost, and after deliberation he decided against it. While acknowledging the financial and legal barriers, McPhee reaffirms his belief that renaming Forrest Hall is the right action, but emphasizes that the university’s efforts will remain focused on creating an inclusive campus for students and staff despite the building’s unchanged name.
