Its mascot is obviously a Roman soldier who has nothing to do with the Crusades. /sarcasm on/I would think if you are an descendant of say a Celt, a Jew, or a German, etc. one might find a school embracing the raping, enslaving, and pillaging Romans problematic./sarcasm off/

“The Board of Trustees completed “a 15-month process of study, discussion, and reflection.”

Pandering to musloids. To be a crusader is a noble thing. Musloids would turn it into an insult. Do not let the muzz win.

So their problem is the term "crusader" so I guess the "Caped Crusader" Batman is banned.

We've also had military hardware named "Crusader."

100 years ago the African Blood Brotherhood for African Liberation and Redemption (American communists) called their newspaper the Crusader.

Several student newspapers are called The Crusader.

Webster's says a Crusade is "a remedial enterprise undertaken with zeal and enthusiasm" such as a "crusade against drunk driving." Guess that's bad too?
