    There is still work to do. The largest building on the campus was named for a well known crook. The name “Harry Larrison” should be removed as it memorializes a dark part of Monmouth County history where government was run for family and friends, not the people of the county.

    The BCC Trustees or the County could fix this abomination that sends the wrong message about government to impressionable young students.
