Renaming an institution like mcg is simply wrong. If i was a grad from there I'd be peeved. What do you tell employers or patients when they ask for credentials? I went to a school that is out of business now, are you ready for for surgery? Its not just a name its part of history. As for attacking Azziz, its not completely fair to assume he did this all his own. mcg has a board of members that approved this as did asu.

At this point, the Augusta contingion is starting to sound like a bunch of spoiled kids crying because they didn't get their way (cue the thumbs downs). Face it, the new state-funded university is named Georgia Regents University, an admittedly not so great name but considering the options they had (in a state where the names University of Georgia and Georgia State University are already taken), a phyrric compromise that will eventually be accepted by the community regardless of what naysayers will say.

The Medical College of Georgia still exists and that is where the future physicians still go to school. I get the "outrage" but there's no need to perpetuate misinformation to further agendas.
