Retired Army Col. Douglas Macgregor, a West Point graduate, will sit on West Point's Board of Visitors, along with other appointees and members of Congress. Mary Tobin, a co-founder of West Point's Black alumni organization, Do More Together , spoke on behalf of the alumni this summer. "And so now the question stands, what does this mean for the board of visitors at large at West Point? And considering that West Point is literally producing the world's leaders of integrity, we do not need that," added Tobin. A West Point spokesman referred questions to questions on the appointment to the White House and Congress.
