We have been in this whole Injun mascot debate for about two and a half years now. I can see where the word Injun might be offensive because it is somewhat of a derogatory term, but when we switched to Indians I thought this whole topic would be finally layed down to rest. Unfortunately that isn't the case...now we are going to be sued for having our mascot being the word "Indian". I think this is ridiculous and it is getting out of hand.
Maybe for the mascot drawing contest I should draw a man with a darker skin complexion in a suit with a briefcase.
One last point, why aren't schools like Minooka (Indians), Morris (Redskins), and other schools that have Native American mascots being sued?
