The Chief
As a graduate of the University of Illinois, I have always enjoyed and appreciated its great symbol - Chief Illiniwek. His dance was researched historically to be an authentic Indian dance. The headdress he wears is authentic and was given to the University by a Sioux Indian Chief. He is not a caricature or mascot, but a respected symbol of a proud heritage. The forces of intolerance and political correctness have succeeded in ending this 80 year tradition. In honor of the Chief, here is his last dance.

tyranny of the minority
Do you think Chief Illiniwek will ever return when right-thinking people are running the university?
