v t e

In 2005 the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) distributed a "self evaluation" to its member institutions for teams to examine the use of potentially offensive imagery with their mascot choice. This examination was done in accordance with NCAA policy that requires each member institution to maintain an "atmosphere of respect for and sensitivity to the dignity of every person."^[1] Fourteen schools either removed all references to Native American culture or were deemed not to have references to Native American culture as part of their athletics programs.^[2]^[3] Subsequently, 19 teams were cited as having potentially "hostile or abusive" names, mascots, or images, that would be banned from displaying them during post-season play, and prohibited from hosting tournaments.^[4]

^ Contrary to the press release, the UNC Pembroke Braves do use Native American imagery as part of their athletics program. They were exempt for a different reason; the school has a continuing heritage of educating the American Indian population and has strong support from the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, whose seat is located in the town of Pembroke.
