Yayyy! I'm so glad our mascot inspired an entire thread! There was an argument years ago about whether it should be a sea lion or a banana slug. I'm glad the banana slug triumphed. No know predators, baby!

It's no banana slug, but how about Texas Christian University's Horned Frogs...

Besides pissed off gardeners?

Slugs disgust me which means I had to look up why your school chose this unofficial mascot. Now it all makes sense but slugs are still gross. :)

Really?

A Tribute to a Wonderful "Formerly" Greek Campus
 

The Colby College White Mules

I can hear the cheer now:

"We're stubborn, we know it...we're here to show it..."

I can't find any images, but Centre College used to be the "Prayin' Colonels". Now their just the "Colonels".

Campbell University is the "Camels".

And, let's go ahead and bring it up: The Rhode Island School of Design Nads.
"Let's go, Nads, let's go."

I always though the University of Akron Zips was a funny name!
