Though the pillars in Gustavus Adolphus College's Evelyn Young Dining Center prominently displayed  twenty-five flags for many years, an American Flag had always been missing from the collection.

Some students didn't like that. So they took action.

Nine months later, a new academic year began.  Students filtered in.  Many didn't notice anything different.  But I did.  The flags in the cafeteria had been rearranged to accomodate an addition: Old Glory.

This article comes from The John Pope Civitas Institute's three part series examining the new president of the University of North Carolina school system, Thomas Ross.  The Civitas Institute began exposing Ross's history of liberal bias.  

As a student of the UNC System, you can take advantage of the information provided by the John Pope Civitas Institute.  Remember to hold Ross accountable to the taxpayers, the faculty, the alumni, the donors and, most importantly, you. You can find out more about The John Pope Civitas Institute and read the other two parts here.

At a hastily convened meeting on August 26th, The UNC Board of Governors voted to appoint Thomas Ross as the next President of the more than 200,000 students and more than 30,000 staff of the university system. While relatively unknown by most state residents, Ross is well known by the politically connected, especially those on the left.

A friend to many far-left organizations and a relative novice to higher education, Thomas Ross makes for an unfortunately predictable choice to be the next President of the University of North Carolina System.
