Voters say it's OK to drop Fighting Sioux nickname at University of North Dakota

From The Wall Street Journal: North Dakota voters have approved a measure that lets the University of North Dakota dump its Fighting Sioux nickname—a decades-old moniker considered offensive by some and fiercely supported by others. The vote sends the matter back to the state's Board of Higher Education, which is expected to retire the moniker and American Indian head logo. For many at the university itself, the long-running battle has become a distraction that is hurting the athletic program as a growing number of teams refuse to play the school.
