Mr. Ichabod mascot

The mascot position can be filled by someone passionate about Washburn and knowledgeable about the history of the university. This individual needs to be outgoing, energetic, and adaptable. WU101 is a required course to take and pass before a mascot application can be filled out. Any past experience as a mascot is appreciated and encouraged!
