Maryland's university president suggests changing the football stadium's name to "Maryland Stadium."
University of Maryland president Wallace Loh is recommending to the state system's board of regents that it change the name of Byrd Stadium, the home for Terps football since 1950.
The stadium is named for former Maryland president Curley Byrd, a segregationist whose racism has come under a microscope over the past few months. The venue's name change debate reflects unease over identifying with Byrd.
Loh recommends the stadium's name be changed to "Maryland Stadium." He also recommends Maryland find a way to recognize Byrd at a university library.
