Please everyone relax, this vote means absolutely nothing. The student government does not have the authority to order a change in mascot. I knew there was a vote because of committees and groups that I sit on the boards of and the last two days they have also voted on who the new student government president, vp, treasurer, and secretary were going to be. The current board basically passed a useless vote to get it on the ballot to make it known to the administration that they want to see something done. In the end, it comes down to the administrators doing something and the current board was already told that BU was not going to tackle the issue this year because apparently next year they are going into major efforts to promote and enhance the Bradley image which means that changing the Braves name would be absolutely id1otic. I'll keep looking for the source that I read that at and if I find it, I'll post it. But this was just another useless vote that only 1500 students voted on and 1500 out of 6000 (including graduate students) is not even close to being a majority which wouldn't have mattered anyways.
