Changing logo is a financial burden

About the story on Indian mascots, as a graduate of Dedham High, class of 1987, I want to say that if every school with an Indian logo had to change it, it would be a financial burden on the schools. People should be more interested in spending money to update our schools, and the textbooks, rather than being politically correct. As players and athletes, we wear our uniforms with pride to represent the school and the town. We don't wear it to disrespect anybody.
