U Of I Inching Closer To New Mascot
(Urbana, IL) — The University of Illinois is inching closer to a new mascot. It won’t be Chief Illiniwek or anything close to the Chief, but the school’s campus senate voted on Monday to start the process of getting a new mascot. The U of I retired the Chief back in 2011 under pressure from lawmakers in Springfield and activists on campus.
