Obviously it's a moot point, but for you old timers (I was never a warrior at MU)

We believe you Cheeks!

Basic human decency is 'woke' now. 

Not sure what that makes you, but I think you can figure it out.

  "basic human decency is woke"??

  is that like taking millions of dollars meant for "the cause" and buying mansions and paying exorbitant salaries to your peeps?   is this considered "human decency"??

Welp, English is not my first language. But as I recall that is how they spelled it in Virginia when I was in 9th grade. I'm just a sorry ass woke minority.

You'd have to ask Bannon about that scenario

Thanks for the info there. I read one interview with the individual who was the model for the warrior silhouette logo and he was in favor of changing it because he didn't like his likeness on merch like boxers. Were  there more than one students who portrayed the First Warrior?

Obviously it's a moot point, but for you old timers (I was never a warrior at MU) would you have accepted an amorphous creature such as an improved Bleuteaux like mascot with just the Warriors nickname? Kind of like X's Blue Blob? Would Bleauteaux work today?

in Marquette's university seal is a Native American in a canoe with the explorer Marquette. Something similar to the attached pic.  Should that be dropped? I'd say no...that's an accurate depiction of what took place at the time. Bravo to MU for not changing that. I understand Marquette's past imagery around Warriors made it tricky to keep 'Warriors' as the nickname. But, the options presented were pathetic. Golden Eagles? Please. Not sure what would have worked...maybe retain Warriors with no mascot. Do we need one? Regardless, Warriors / Marquette is forever a footnote.

'forever a footnote' needs explanation?

Uh-huh. Financially comfortable white men like us still can't catch a break in America.
