West Conn has a new mascot.  The university is changing from the Colonials to the Wolves.  That option was selected by 49-percent of total votes cast among five options.  A unique voting link allowed each individual to vote only once.  There were nearly 3,000 respondents, 51-percent were students, 39-percent alumni and 10-percent were faculty and staff.  A Mascot Advisory Committee was created in June 2019 to identify five mascot options from submissions from the community in town halls and previous ballots that have taken place in the past two years.  The committee also consulted with the Connecticut Board of Regents, the university's government body, and a representative of the Mohegan Tribe among others.  The 4 students and 6 staff members were led by Student Government President Patrick Moody, a Digital & Interactive Marketing major from Bethlehem and Associate Vice President for Enrollment Services Jay Murray.
