Don't believe all this bull-twaddle about everyone being out of the loop on this decision. As we found out years ago, every decision concerning Chief Illiniwak comes from the highest level of the University of Illinwaks Administration-up to and including the Board of "Trustees {sic!-not for People of Color}."
Oskee! Bow! Wow! Forever! Fab.

Subject: [NativeNews] Boyle's letter to U of I president

Dear President White:

You and the Board of Trustees must eradicate anything related to Indians
from the sports program: "Fighting Illini", "Oskeewowow," the TomTom beats,
the fake Indian Music from the 3 in 1 march and elsewhere in band
performances , the war paint, the feathers, the tomahawks, the Illiniwak
Logo, etc. In addition the University of Illinois must hold onto the
Illiniwak Logo and not transfer it to the White Racists and Bigots on the
so-called Council of Illiniwak Chiefs where they will continue to
perpetrate this desecration of Indians forever . You must also indicate
that you will vigorously prosecute anyone who violates your Trademark to
Chief Illiniwak. You must terminate all licenses for Chief Illiniwak. And
you must clear this racist Illiniwak garbage out of all University of
Illinois Buildings.

Little Red Sambo is finally gone--no thanks to you, the Board of Trustees,
the Chancellor, the Provost and previous Board Members, Presidents,
Chancellors and Provosts--except for Nancy Kantor whom you all summarily
ran out of town on a rail for doing the right thing for American Indians.
But now you and the Board of Trustees and the Chancellor and the Provost
must concentrate on getting rid of all elements of Little Red Samboism from
this campus. Based upon prior experience, I will not hold my breath. But we
will keep coming after you all until you do the right thing for American
Indians.

Professor Francis A. Boyle
