A mangy mutt represents human diversity and inclusion more than a depiction of a person?
The old logo is “problematic” for triggered people who might’ve preferred to go to a different school. They were not compelled to go there. I don’t care for either logo.

It’s only a matter of time before a woke college chooses Dylan Mulvaney as its mascot. Well, he's already a cartoon version of a woman.

“The swashbuckling Highlander was depicted as a white Scotsman wielding a sword and a shield who wore the yellow and black MacLeod plaid colors.
For students, according to the statement, this representation left out anyone who was not white or male.”
********
so by this logic. The new mascot leaves out anyone who is NOT a dog?
If we don't know if the dog is a male or female, how can we be properly offended?
Go college!

I care for tradition.
Fiddler On A Roof is an excellent entry into the subject.

My high school mascot was the indian head figure licensed from the Boston/Milwaukee/Atlanta Braves and was used until 2007 when some fake indian group threatened a lawsuit claiming our mascot was “racist”.

From the article:
For students, according to the statement, this representation left out anyone who was not white or male. So, does this mean anyone who is not a dog is now left out?
