ND Ref:

The letter posted by the UND President was very well written. I am curious to see how the NCAA responds, if it does.

While I'd like to believe that colleges don't want people to feel demeaned or belittled by their logos or mascots, I still wonder why schools that have made good-faith efforts to promote Native American logos and mascots in a positive manner are now being told that their efforts don't matter if even one person has objections. (That's the impression I'm getting right now)

It's important to be tolerant, but why punish those who are trying to do the right thing?
