In the context that the perpetually aggrieved might find it offensive to blacks. You think that's not possible. They went after Ol Miss because they decided it came from the name for a female house slave not that it was an affectionate name for University of MISSISSIPPI! I kid you not.

Black Stripes is about as offensive as Green Circles or Yellow Stars...sounds like a box of Lucky Charms.

I am for just being North Dakota, however if it comes down to having to have a nickname (which I'm still not convinced of), has Big Green been mentioned? Big Red works for Cornell and they don't have an official mascot. Flame away.

 

Dartmouth is called Big Green.
