Yale University to Rename Calhoun College

Yale University to Rename Calhoun College:

Yale will rename the college to celebrate Grace Hopper, the “First Lady of software”: programming luminary, inventor of the compiler, and first to popularize the phrase “computer bug.”

Her name supplants that of former Vice President John C. Calhoun, a supporter of slavery whose work was influential in the secession of the South from the Union.
