Agreed. Mascots are a fun part of the event for a lot of people. If we promote accountability by reporting any incidents as Libby said, and as mentors ensure that students know that incidents will be swiftly reported, and what the consequences for this are. Knowing what things are acceptable behavior, and what aren't is an important part of being a good mascot, or a good anything else; I'd rather see the community instill this in mascots, than create more rules to fix the problem. Of course, if that doesn't work, we should do what it takes to prevent future issues.
