I Love the Drum and Feather logo AND the tie-in with the Ute Indian Tribe. The family and community spirit of Utah and it's alumni, and how the spirit is carried to sports. But, I am not a Native American, much less a member of the Ute Indian Tribe. Keep the Drum/Feather and Ute mascot, but only if it with the blessing of the Ute Indian Nation! I hope they choose to let the University keep using it. I think it helps bring awareness and keeps the Ute Indians in everyones' mind, "What's a UTE?"

First nations weren't allowed to practice ceremony until 1978 ( Indian religious freedom act) and well feathers are part of the ceremonial tools used in ceremony's . As long as there is no mascot and the selling of headress I'm okay with it because mascots portraying traditional leaders or elders that are wearing headdress is deem abusive and offensive. For instance on does not simply receive a headdress just because, but thru great respects to the receiver of the headdress. Another reason i

I'm not a fan of the drum & feather logo. Its current iteration is poorly executed from an art/design standpoint. It is a plagiarized design, "borrowed" from the NFL's Washington Redskins. The block U on the hillside above campus is one of the university's most enduring images and represents how most students and alumni refer to the university: "THE U". Just like the University of Michigan's "M" or the University of Alabama's "A", the block U design is instantly recognizable. Dump the drum.

This is great. I love the chance you are giving the fans to be a part of the conversation. As for the logo, I feel that it should never be changed and in my opinion I would love to see it used more. It would be pretty rad to see the drum & feather logo in the middle of the basketball court in the Huntsman Center! I have never heard of anyone being offended or seen people offended by the logo as long as I have lived, but I am not native american either. All I hear is great support!

It's time for the University of Utah to make some changes to the logo and put this issue to rest. In Native American cultures that use the drum, it is considered sacred to be able to play the drum. You have earn the right to play it. You must be substance-free while playing the drum. It has high spiritual value to Native American culture. To see it displayed in a manner that is oppositional to it's true purpose is very offensive indeed. Let the DRUM AND FEATHER GO

The Utes have had the logo for a long time, and should keep it. I understand that it might have religious ties to certain tribes, but different things can have more than one meaning, and you aren't going to be able to always make everyone happy. People will always find something to be offended by one way or another. I believe that a majority of ute fans want the logo to stay, so they should keep it because it has a different meaning to us.

Google "White Privilege" or the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People if you can't understand why the continued misappropriation of Native American imagery is offensive and just another example of structural and institutional racism. U of U fans will not switch to BYU if you are no longer the name "Utes". The football team will still play on Saturday if you change its name.

If we want to keep it, we need to listen to Dr. Hill (no relation, incidentally) and be respectful of Native American imagery. There is no need to wear headdresses--wear Utah hats! The Drum and Feather is a very important part of the Utah tradition, and means a GREAT deal to alums like me.

My rule is that you should not use peoples as your mascots. It isn't worth it. Instead of constantly having to talk about your current logo/whatever it would be easier to just switch it. There are plenty of animals to choose from, some of them even have feathers if that's what you like.

I think the logo should be kept! I love it and I agree with a previous poster that said it reminds people of where that logo and name (Utes) come from. If we were to change our mascot to some sort of Indian-like character, I would find that offensive.

The only people offended by the drum and feather are the white liberals from cali. The Utea have given us their blessing to use the logo and name. Lets not offend them by dropping it for fear of a cali liberal being offended.

Is the U of U compensating them or is this more of the same, taking freely from and misappropriating indigenous cultures? If so, I hope the Ute Tribal Council reconsiders and take back their intellectual property.

Why isn't Chrill Hill consulting the indigenous community? Why not have a video discussion with a member of the Ute Tribal council on the logo?

The Ute tribe has granted the university permission to use the "Utes" name. I don't know if they are compensated in return.
