Chapel Cross Returned: College Of William And Mary
By J. Grant Swank, Jr.
Mar 11, 2007

“More than 19,000 people signed petitions to have the cross restored. A longtime donor called Nichol’s decision ‘unbelievable’ – then withdrew a $12 million donation,” per CitizenLink of Focus on the Family.

The 66-year-old cross will be put in a “‘prominent’” place in The College of William and Mary Wren Chapel, president Gene Nichol announced.
 
Not to devalue the 19,000 signatories but it’s a pity to see people agree to keep a cross if faced with losing USD 12 Million donation.
 
Does anyone even notice the Protestant context of “William and Mary”? 😉
