Started by Patrick Sheridan 10 years, 7 months ago

Hello to all past, present, and future Friars. My name is Patrick Sheridan and I believe that Providence College needs to get another dog. Having a dalmatian, both on campus and as a mascot, was a unique tradition to PC that shouldn't die out because of lack of interest. I think an institution that charges sixty thousand dollars PER STUDENT PER YEAR can find the resources to maintain a domesticated pet. Also, I feel like we can all agree that we need a mascot change. Or if not a change, at least something to balance out our current Friar who is, according to ABC sports, a symbol of "unmatched and unapologetic creepiness". A dog would simply be better; think about the children. I am not the only person with this opinion, Cox Sports writer and longtime PC sports fanatic Daniel James has also drafted a petition to bring the Dalmatian back. (https://www.change.org/p/providence-college-bring-...)Thank you for your time and your signature, and as always, go Friars.

I have been hearing from plenty of you who are tired of that mascot and want a change on campus. It is draining to keep pushing for something that seems so obvious yet stays ignored. I am still trying to get someone in the administration to actually acknowledge this proposal.

Just do it. Nobody likes the creepy guy in the robe anyway.

BRING HIM BACK! The mascot we have now is honestly just weird and scares the little kids at the games.

Class of '12 here. Miss the dog so much. It was the best part of the games back then.

Great idea! The current mascot is an embarrassment, and Friar Boy would renew the enthusiasm that has been lost with Creepy Friar.

Please please please bring back the Dalmatian! PC's current mascot is an embarrassment for all alumni.
