"Carolyn Luby is a senior at the University of Connecticut majoring in Women’s Gender and Sexuality Studies and Spanish and minoring in Latino/a Studies. She is involved in various different feminist groups and violence against women prevention efforts on campus and has particular interest in global feminisms and anti-imperial anti-colonial feminisms."

I didn't see anything that said that the logo promotes rape. She clearly doesn't like the more "powerful and aggressive" logo, and thinks that the athletic program should have other priorities, like reeducating males to be feminized, but unless she wrote something else, it seems her words were not summarized accurately. Am I missing something? Granted, she is a crackpot (see above description of her academic pursuits).

The mascot of the University of Minnesota, Goldie Gopher, was changed in the mid-’80s. Basketball team members were involved in rape allegations and the scary macho Gopher was changed to a goofier, “harmless” one.
