School Mascots?

<p>just about all of the NESCAC schools have ‘interesting’ mascots:</p>

<p>Amherst College Lord Jeffs (pretty intimidating…)
Colby College Mules (aren’t mules characterized as dumb and lazy?)
Connecticut College Camels (we bite we spit we kick?)
Hamilton College Continentals (whats a continental???)
Trinity College Bantams (a bantom is a chicken)
Tufts UNiversity Jumbos (elephants!)
Wesleyan University Cardinals (watch out for those priests? or is it those calm little birds?)
Williams College Ephs (purple cows???)</p>

<p>of course the winner of worst school mascot ever would have to be the nyu purple violets. ummm do you think the mens basketball team likes being called violets??</p>
