Wolves Presence in the Media and Around Campus
After we were officially named 'Wolves', the student newspaper, yearbooks, and team jerseys began to include images of our newly found mascot. The campus used the wolf theme in naming areas on campus, such as The Wolves Shack Fountain (formerly the College Inn) and later in naming Waldo's Den in the Student Union (now known as the Werner University Center). We proudly see our wolf mascot everywhere.

For Homecoming 1968 there was a competition between residence halls to create the best paper mache mascot sculpture. Barnum Hall was awarded first place for their eye-catching signs.
