2. Why Do You Think Symbols Like A Name Or Mascots?

    The practice of ethnic separation and segregation is common on every college and university campus. Since this practice has happened through history, it is remarkable that this has only been recognized recently as a true problem (Jacobs, 2). Segregation has hampered America as long as it has existed. Ethnicity and segregation was nearly the cause of this country splitting apart during the Civil War. Since then reformation and hard work has attempted to bring unity to this country. Though today, college students have regressed, university pupils are "standing by" their own and are not branching out to those who are unlike them in ethnicity. People in general, but more specifically college students

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines mascot as, “a person, animal, or object used as a symbol to represent a group (such as a sports team) and to bring good luck.” Hopeful sports teams around the United States rely on their mascots to bring in positive energy as motivation to help win the game. The mascot often serves as the face of a team, and acts to define the team’s character to their opponents. The mascots represent the community that the team belongs to, and that is a big role. When a mascot is offensive or isolates a particular group of people, the mascot can also bring negative attention to the team. The negative publicity will often result in a mascot change.

Many people look at the Washington Redskins logo and see it just the same as any of the other NFL teams’ logos. So, why take the time and money to change their brand for the very few amount of people that think it’s little offensive? In the past couple of years, a lot of people see many pro and college sports teams differently because of their mascot or logo. Native Americans, whose culture diminished ever since Europeans stepped onto the shores of the East, are used as branding for all levels and divisions of athletics teams. A lot of people argue for both sides of the conflict, with one side reasoning that the logos look racist and disrespect Native American culture, and the other side reasoning that they honor Indians and there is not even an issue. However, a ton of people fighting for the Indian mascot’s removal do not know how Native Americans themselves truly feel about them. Also, the general public probably does not know either that many schools actually work with specific tribes to make sure that they respect their culture. The United States should not ban Native American mascots because most Native Americans don’t get insulted from sports teams’ logos and many teams work with tribes to make sure that they don’t disparage Indian customs and traditions.

Students take pride in their mascots. Why would a team pick a mascot that they take pride in if the mascot was going to be made fun of? Topic of debate writer Jim McDonald says, ”team mascot names are not racist, the writer correctly gave the definition of racism,

a. One step could be for us to create a continuous food drive in the residential halls here at UWEC and encourage students to donate a few cans of food each week. Cans that come in parent “care packages,” and sit on the shelf for the rest of the semester would be great candidates.

The school should be named Corydon SE because it is south east to the existing high school, Corydon Central. The mascot should be a mountain lion because the Corydon mascot is a large cat so they should coordinate. It’s important that whatever is picked for the school name and mascot is liked by the city because they are the backbone of the school. Without the public, public schools are nothing. It is equally important that the students like the name and mascot because they are the faces of the school. You want the students to wear their school name with pride.

Many sports fans say that having a Native American mascot is a way of honoring the indigenous

Second the new school's mascot should be a python. It should be a python because most kids and young adults like snakes because of how cool they are. Also the python is a really cool snake, because it is so kind for a big snake and because they get so big and long.

As a sports team, your branding is more about the fans, sponsors, club members and their personalities and performance. You also want them to view your team in a certain way so they cheer for you, support you and most importantly, respect you.
