Our mascot, named Coo, was created in 2024, as part of the sesquicentennial celebrations at Macalester College. This distinctive mascot was selected with input from Macalester alumni, students, faculty, and staff after several rounds of polling. Coo came to life at Mac Fest, October 2024.<\/p>\n \t <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
