Feathers?
Okay, have at it. Will W&M develop a relationship with one or more of these tribes and gain their approval a la FSU and Seminole Nation?

William & Mary celebrates movement toward federal recognition for six local tribes with the passage of H.R. 984: https://t.co/dYhK5crnGV

RE: Feathers?
Interesting article. Feathers aren't coming back. It is a powder keg topic in a time where someone takes offense to everything. Even if the local tribes spearhead the whole idea of adding back the feathers, a tribe in Oklahoma will raise a stink. W&M won't bring that on themselves.

Feathers or not W&M should strongly support these local tribes. The VA tribes really got screwed by Federal level legislation and its a great PR move for the college dating back to its original mission.

I'd say it is a duty to support this.

RE: Feathers?
Our heritage if helping Indians as a College centuries ago mandates that we do it again and as a by product bring back the Feathers featured into 1693. What is old comes around as being new and "in" every 50 years so let our millennium grads lead the charge.

RE: Feathers?
Maybe Colonial Williamsburg can get a few people to re-enact Indian trading posts or something of the sort. Outposts on the edge of the colonial town etc.

Maybe the casino can be a proud donor to tribe athletics.

Who okayed this to be sold in the Tribe merchandise section of B&N? That person has something in common with our Griffin statue.[Image: 14afd109a7539a3eae338a4c307172ca.jpg]

RE: Feathers?
I feel that the NCAA should sanction the 115th United States Congress for naming the Bill that led to the recognition of the Virginia Tribes the "H.R.984 - Thomasina E. Jordan Indian Tribes of Virginia Federal Recognition Act of 2017".

The Congress of the United States of America deserves the wrath of the NCAA and all sensitive people for granting recognition of these Tribes through such an insensitively named piece of legislation.
