This older article is more informative than today's, but it's been announced that the new nickname is River Hawks. No word yet on whether the squirrels will modify that to Hicks or Hoax.
FTR, Susq U is a small university in central PA. Library parking lot is perhaps the smallest in the nation. How they get under the ADA radar is a mystery, but if you don't have a bicycle you're gonna feel the microagression.

But, but, but, what if I’m offended that they dropped “Cursaders”? LOL! I know. I’d be told to sit down and STFU.

I am only cool with this if the new name is KillAllMuslims.

Squirrels are offended that the school would adopt an apex predator as their new choice of mascot.

You know the engineers of political correctness have done a great job when institutions don’t even wait for someone to complain before making the move.
Sad.

Sensitivity inclusive it’s like calling socialism a safety net just more words from the liberal passive code book.

My sister and two of my children graduated from SU.... I used to be a professor at SU. I know it well.. Excellent University...
Should have picked the nutty squirrels as a mascot!!! They are everywhere.
SU is mainly NJ students.... (No correlation to my mascot preference)

So what is the new name? The Saracens?
I tried to read the article to see if a new name had been chosen but a "security alert" popped up and wouldn't let me read the rest of the article.

River Hawks? Stupid name. It needs to be changed to Islamic Martyrs.

Despite the petition and seemingly apathetic student body, the Board and President Lemons stand firm in the need to change the nickname and mascot to something that doesn’t potentially conjure connotations that would offend someone.
After months of deliberations, they'll come back with ... "The Susquehanna Lemons."
