The Antonin Scalia School of Law @ George Mason University, #ASSLaw, #ASSoL.

[Miles Archer]

Last week, George Mason University announced that it was renaming its law school in honor of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Henceforth, students would attend the Antonin Scalia School of Law or, as the internet quickly (and gleefully) pointed out, ASSLaw—or ASSoL

It didn't take long for the school to tweak the name. According to the Wall Street Journal, "Antonin Scalia School of Law at George Mason University" will be the official name, but the school's website and promotional materials will refer to the Antonin Scalia Law School. Take that, snarky acronym-mongers!

The decision to rename the school came after it received two major donations: an anonymous donor, who requested the name change to commemorate Scalia, gave $20 million, and the Charles Koch Foundation gave $10 million.

2. Everyone of any long term political career get a name on a building

It's been this way since the beginning. I could care less. The fundies complain about the president getting names on things to. It is a waste of time and energy.

That's what you get for trying to honor that big ass!

6. CNN Mentions the ASSOL Now

"The school acknowledged the issue in a letter to its students and alumni, writing, "The name initially announced -- The Antonin Scalia School of Law -- has caused some acronym controversy on social media. The Antonin Scalia Law School is a logical substitute."

I think they should leave it. It's P-E-R-F-E-C-T!
