Are they Jihadis now?
But will they remove any dark colored rocks or perhaps trees.....
Crusaders was adoptd by hate groups? I have heard other schools dropped that name because it is offensive to Muslims.
I usually hate this stuff, but reading the university motto, ‘In Thy Light We See Light,’ it seems like “Beacons” is perfect, and unique. I vote yes.
Well, that’s a little better than what my alma mater did. It turned Crusaders into Thunder. Ugh. In my heart I’m still a proud Crusader.
In the spirit of Martin Luther: “There I stood, but then the bullies looked at me so I bailed.”
A few years ago, the college where I worked made the very same name change; from Crusaders to Beacons.
WTF?!
I want out of this god forsaken Obama bizarro world
Now the’re gonna get observant muslims and jews angry. Naming their mascot after banned food is offensive.
Huh?
Oh, never mind.
It will be amusing when the Wokestopo starts to pressure the Holy Cross Crusaders to change their monicker - the name of the college is even more provocative to a certain demographic than is the nickname.
And as an aside, apparently a few years ago Holy Cross abandoned their mascot under pressure - it used to be a knight with a lance. The Furman Paladins better start checking their back; ditto the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and a few others.
