RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - The Board of Trustees at the University of Richmond has suspended their decision to keep two building names.
The university has faced criticism from students, staff and alumni since deciding in February to keep the names of former Rector Douglas Southall Freeman and former university President Robert Ryland.
