As you know, University of Illinois students have partnered with many state and national organizations to align our mission and spread awareness of our efforts, including the Mascot Hall of Fame, Chicago Tribune, Audubon Society, American Birding Association, American Indian Center of Chicago, National Congress of American Indians, Association on American Indian Affairs, and the National Indian Education Association.
We are proud to annou nce that we've partnered with the University of Illinois College of Fine and Applied Arts Costume & Theatre Dept. and a few students in the Siebel Center for Design to create—for the first time ever—a Belted Kingfisher mascot!!

As a UIUC faculty member I fully support the kingfisher as our new mascot! The native bird can be both friendly and fierce, and the design is great.
Awesome mascot idea! native bird to Illinois, fast, aggressive and the colors are perfect!
I am an alumni of U of I and I really love this new mascot. I really love birds, I studied Ornithology while I was at U of I. I also love that the Kingfisher is U of I colors.
I am excited about the kingfisher as mascot of UIUC. This is long overdue. Thanks for a great design!
The Kingfisher mascot will make UIUC the leader of the flock.
it's about time! no better mascot than the kingfisher for the u of i.
My wife and I just changed our last name to Kingfisher. The Belted Kingfisher will make an amazing mascot for UIUC. We did not go to your school, but support your cause! Keep it up
