You think bears are overused? Yeah, hi. We're lions. Now, I love lions. They rock @ss. But...overused...

As for cartoon characters, I just don't get it. Especially when your GLO already HAS a mascot. Like....we have Phi Sig on our campus. And I dunno if all Phi Sigs do this or jsut the ones at Muhlenberg, but they use Paddington as their mascot. And I just can't help but think, "C'mon guys, you have a SPHINX! Now that's cool!"

As for squirrels: They're more original than lions. ;-) And the squirrels at M'berg could whomp anybody. I've seen them attack students for their fries. Nasty dudes. Wouldn't wanna tangle with them in a dark alley. And I got one to come right to my feet by whistling too...so I guess they aren't all badass ;-)

But there was the campus "Squabbit". Poor thing had gotten into a fight (with a cat, or fox, or other squirrel presumably), and had it's tail ripped off to just a lil stump. So when it bounded around, it looked more like a rabbit with short ears. THAT would be a cool mascot.....
