Dion Kevin III, president of the Ole Miss Associated Student Body, said in a letter that students will be able to vote on the Landshark as the new mascot, which would replace the Black Bear mascot chosen in 2010.

“The Landshark as we know it today has its origins in football, but has since expanded to symbolize Ole Miss’s fight spirit and athletic prowess,” Kevin wrote. “On September 26th, we will all have the chance to leave a legacy of unity and excitement in a referendum vote in this year’s Fall Election.”
