Are TJ's days numbered?
(CNN)Florida State University students will soon say goodbye to a familiar face.
A prominent statue of one of the school's slave-owning founders will be relocated from the school's front gates, FSU President John Thrasher announced Tuesday.
In addition to the statue's relocation, Thrasher approved seeking the removal of a pro-segregation Florida Supreme Court justice's name from the campus' law school building. However, Thrasher did not accept a third recommendation to change the name of a different campus building that bears the same name as the statue.
