The university’s marketing department has conceded to the demands of the student body. I sat down with a representative to get the facts.
Students have complained for years that they don’t care for the phoenix and want something they can relate to.
Florida Poly Marketing Rep : “While all of us in the admin are Chads and simply don’t understand anime stuff” said a marketing officer. “Our weeaboo student body has been requesting for some time that we make a mascot change.”
Marketing wanted to license either Pikachu, or Goku, but settled on making their very own Florida Poly Waifu.
Florida Poly Marketing Rep : “The students are now requesting we sell custom pillows for the mascot, so this was clearly a mistake”.
The dodo is excited also to announce our own mascot change, which will be a Dodo Senpai.
