EMU: Nickname

By

Greg Eno, an EMU alumnus, writes that the university seems to have been cursed for changing its nickname from the Hurons to the Eagles – something that happened over 17 years ago: “Nicknames are part of school pride. And EMU, I thought, had one of the more unique ones in the country. And the facts back that up. But there’s hope. A group called Huron Restoration continues to try to bring back the name, and claims to have the support of Chief Leaford Bearskin of the Wyandot Tribe of Oklahoma and former Grand Chief Max Gros-Louis of the Huron-Wendat Nation of Quebec. It’s not too late to get this right, after all. Hurons, unite!” [Source]
