The tribal council at the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has voted down a request to hold a tribal vote on the Fighting Sioux nickname. A supporter of the UND nickname and logo says the vote was 7-to-6 against holding a referendum. The Fighting Sioux name and logo are considered offensive to Native Americans by some people. And the state Board of Higher Education has ordered the Sioux name dropped unless UND wins approval from area Sioux tribes by this October. If that approval doesn't come, the Sioux name and logo will be retired by UND by August First of next year. « Less
