Feeling bummed. I was really hoping it would be something unique and different. Just be bold with something that is not like so many other mascots.

Very disappointed we have to be represented by some dumb animals that have nothing to do with us, our name, tradition, etc.— Ugh. Was hoping we could somehow remain unique. 😩

Is the VU Hall you referred to as Alturis Hall possibly have in reality been Altruria Hall a long time female dormitory? I could be wrong.

Thanks, my dad would have giggled a bit and then made a note on the side of the copy. I'm not sure what he would have done reading it on a computer. Probably he would have made a note of it on a piece of paper and then sent you an email after he would have asked somebody if he had the email address correct. :-)
