COLUMBUS, Ind. – Ivy Tech Community College Columbus is asking for the help of the communities it serves in selecting a campus mascot. Ivy Tech Columbus has informally identified itself as the “Eagles” for several years and now plans to add an official eagle mascot.
“Our campus employees have really adopted the ‘eagle’ nickname as a point of pride and consider the eagle our unofficial mascot,” Ivy Tech Columbus Chancellor Dr. Steven Combs said. “Like a bird of flight, the eagle representation also fits well with our campus located at the Columbus Municipal Airpark.”
Ivy Tech students, employees, and area community members can vote for one of three styles for the eagle mascot – fierce, friendly, or proud. It will represent Ivy Tech Columbus at events and provide a tangible sense of identity to the campus. Voting can be done here.
