We read:
"Controversy is beginning to brew over a proposal to change the Menomonie School District’s mascot. The school board said it is taking action before someone files a complaint against the mascot, which some say is racist.
Now the district is facing a law that went into effect in May, 2010. The law says if someone complains that a school’s mascot is racially insensitive, the district must determine if the mascot promotes discrimination, student harassment or stereotyping.
If the mascot is deemed racially insensitive, it must immediately be pulled from school activities.
