The governing body of Virginiaâs community college system is urging two institutions â including Dabney S. Lancaster Community College in Clifton Forge â to reconsider their decisions to maintain the names of their schools that honor people who advocated for segregation or owned slaves.
The State Board for Community Colleges initiated a process last July of having colleges examine the names of their schools and buildings. Of the 23 community colleges in Virginia, five of them are named after segregationists, slave owners and confederates. Three of them have already begun the process to change their names.
