No, they were erected to show who was still in charge.

Hardly, they were put there to honor the sacrifice of local veterans.

Oh, my. A statue of Robert E. Lee on the campus of UVA was in honor of local veterans?

You should research the timing of when the statues and monuments started appearing, and 50 years later, when schools were named or re-named.

Push back and white washing (pun intended).
