LOL! I gave up on my alma mater when they changed their mascot from an Indian to a tree because it was PC. What the? (I'm the parent of a Duke student - hence my screenname.)

We have a High School that had a Indian Brave for a mascot. The changed their name last year to "Storm". For weeks there were calls to the newspaper from Katrina refugees living in the area about the insensitive nature of the new name.
