When I came to Princeton from Chicago, nobody in my family had a degree, but I felt at home until I looked at the Rockefeller and Forbes buildings,” said Hobson, who graduated from Princeton in 1991, in an announcement. Princeton University is building a new residence under the name of Mellody Hobson, president and co-director of Ariel Investments, on the site of former Wilson College. In June, the university removed the name Woodrow Wilson from its School of International and Community Relations and Boarding College to become Hobson College. The college removed Wilson’s name after people gathered around the country to protest against police brutality and to support black life. We reprinted the comments and sent letters to the editors.
