OCC is officially one step closer to implementing a new mascot! Will it be Cobras, Green Tide or Owls?
Employees and students can cast their vote beginning on Monday, Nov. 6 for their favorite among the three concepts for OCC’s new mascot.
The College’s mascot refresh project began in September 2022, when students and employees submitted more than 200 name suggestions. Representatives from OCC’s Student Government, Marketing, Student Engagement, Athletics, DEIJ and Purchasing along with strong input from OCC student athletes narrowed down the pool to the top three.
The top mascot names were then sent to students in Peter Schade’s popular Graphic Design classes for design. The three final concepts now up for vote were all designed by OCC student Hailey Martin.
Now it’s your turn! Voting is open to current OCC students and employees only. Only one vote per person is allowed, and voters must log in with a Google account to prevent spam.
The voting period closes at 5 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 20, so be sure to cast your vote today!
