Comments on: Historical Revisionism on the Hill: An Unfair Accusation https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/historical-revisionism-on-the-hill-an-unfair-accusation/ The Official Student Publication of William Jewell College Wed, 27 Aug 2025 06:43:43 +0000 hourly 1 By: James S. Brady II https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/historical-revisionism-on-the-hill-an-unfair-accusation/#comment-103600 Wed, 27 Aug 2025 06:43:43 +0000 https://hilltopmonitor.jewell.edu/?p=796#comment-103600 I find the above article to be ambiguous as to the preservation of the Civil War trenches on campus.
At some point, the College apparently disregarded these important, silent reminders of what our forefathers

endured to build a better America. Do any of these trenches still remain? If so, are they protected from people walking upon them through signage?
Are the trenches explained to the public? If so,
is there an historical marker to commemorate them? These trenches are of national interest and importance. You are lucky that these historical landmarks are upon your campus, which causes additional collegiate notoriety. You folks are the trustees and fiduciaries of these trenches.
As we approach the 250th birthday of our republic next year, please give America the gift of historic preservation, as well as excellent student graduates. Please respond. Thank you.

the preservation of these landmarks. Kindly respond. Thank you
