Though the Valpo situation is being pitched as “the admin caving” to a “bitching” minority, the Valpo nickname change came only after a long discussion that ended with the faculty, the student senate, and the alumni association asking for the change. Change happens. ND wasn’t always the “Fightin’ Irish” and Valpo wasn’t always the “Crusaders.” Nothing wrong with a change, as far as I’m concerned. Or maybe I’m wrong and nicknames like Nebraska Bugeaters should have been sacrosanct.
