UNC Axes Christmas Trees
Posted by Dave Blount at December 10, 2008 8:01 AM
The annual War on Christmas has claimed another casualty — the traditional Christmas trees at University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill:
For as long as anyone can remember, Christmas trees adorned with lights and ornaments have greeted holiday season visitors to UNC Chapel Hill's two main libraries.
Not this year.
The trees, which have stood in the lobby areas of Wilson and Davis libraries each December, were kept in storage this year at the behest of Sarah Michalak, the associate provost for university libraries. …
"We strive in our collection to have a wide variety of ideas," she said. "It doesn't seem right to celebrate one particular set of customs."
Never mind that they are OUR CUSTOMS. By the same logic, baseball games should be banned, because they too celebrate the customs of our culture.
No word on how soon the word "Chapel" gets censored from Chapel Hill.
A moonbat makes off with UNC's Christmas trees.
On a tip from Burning Hot.
