The George Washington University student body voted Thursday to "remove and replace" its mascot, the George the Colonial.
According to the GWU Joint Elections Commission, 54 percent of students who voted in this spring’s Student Association elections supported the removal of the Colonial as the school’s mascot. It was not immediately clear what students plan to replace the Colonial mascot with or even if school administrators will act on the results of the referendum.

They chose to go to George Washington University, and they're surprised at what the mascot turned out to be? Idiots.

Sounds about right.... and once the mascot is finally changes, the students who voted for the change can go back to not attending the games where the mascot is present anyway.

The petition calls on the University to abandon GW’s 92-year-old nickname in favor of something less “offensive” to both domestic and international students. Some students suggested for the name to change to a hippo
George Washington is now offensive it seems. Communists trying to tear down the foundations of our country.

They've successfully convinced idiot college kids that "old and white" = bad.
Don't tell me indoctrination doesn't work.

Lets rewrite all of history and compare them to today’s standards right?

Let me guess, it’s gonna become some super progressive emblem

If they really want to send a message they should forfeit their education and diplomas since they bear the name of a dirty colonialist scum!

The only way to combat white privilege is to change the name of the school from George Washington University to Michael Brown University and make this guy the mascot

Students of a college/University should never be the ones voting on these matters. Only alumni.

I can sleep better at night now knowing that they’re defeating racism by changing their college mascot.

Hmm, well if it wasn't for George Washington it would be King George III University - so maybe maybe just change the coat from blue to red and it will be all better?
Of course, George the RedCoat will have full authority to break into and sleep in anyone's dorm room at any time and there's nothing they can do about it.
