Washington State Wants Schools to Ban Native American Mascots. If the Washington State Board of Education has its way, high schools across the state will no longer count Warriors, Braves, and Redskins among their mascots. The state board passed a resolution last Wednesday encouraging districts to stop using Native American mascots, according to ABC affiliate KOMO-TV, in Seattle.
Native American groups have objected to the use of Indian names and caricatures as team mascots in non-Indian schools across the state. The college adopted the nickname in 1938. The school's logo, designed in 1956, depicted an Indian with a tomahawk and war shield.
