University of Iowa's American Indian Mascot policy is politically correct liberal-minded nonsense

By Mike Thayer

When the University of Iowa denied the North Dakota Fighting Sioux an invitation to an upcoming track meet, they denied student athletes an opportunity to create, achieve, experience. 

U of I policy forbids the school from competing against schools using American Indian mascots unless they are "NCAA approved" and also OK'd by the respective American Indian tribes.  Such policy by the U of I is politically correct nonsense.

This isn't something for the U of I to police, it's up to the NCAA and in this particular case the state of North Dakota.   Butt out, Iowa.

Think about it, the result of U of I policy.....  Trying to *manage* political correctness.....  The only outcome has been to punish students for a matter they didn't even create.  It's a denial of opportunity, a denial placed not only on U of I students, but the University of North Dakota students as well. 

Get rid of the nonsense.

The homosexual mafia that has run the "University" of Iowa (a.k.a. University of Zero Nobel Prizes) for decades doesn't believe in freedom of speech. Their latest bizarre edict is just another perverted bowdlerized twist on their old established patterns of censorship, as always, to do your thinking for you.
