<font size=3>Hi Bob and List,<br><br>
Here is a list from Google:<br><br>
The Beaver as a Mascot<br>
<br>
Colleges and Universities across the United States have chosen to declare
themselves “Beavers.” Many underestimate the power and fierceness
that the beaver really has. For many school the reason why they
call themselves the beavers is because the beaver is defined as a hard
worker. The beaver is a unique and smart animal “Because they are
so much like us. The way they work until the drop, like us.
They commune together in small homes pieced together, like us. They
work both day night for long shifts, like us. They get pushed
around by large corporations and developers, like us.”

University is documented as being the first to have the Beaver as a
mascot established in 1910. <br>
Many
college and University’s all over the country have adopted the beaver as
their mascot such as the following Colleges and University’s:<br>

adopt the beaver as their mascot. <br>
