Quick mascot facts on the State of Tennessee:
In May of 2000, the Tennessee Chapter of the National Coalition for the Preservation of Indigenous Cultures passed an anti-mascot resolution. The Chapter's website contains pages on the mascot issue including a section containing photographs of children "playing 'Indian'" at the Happy Valley School District. A petition created to help address this District's troubling practices can be found here.
Following a two year controversy, the University of Tennessee at
Chattanooga dropped its "Chief
Moccanooga" mascot in 1996.
