Last year, the NCAA banned teams with nicknames “hostile or offensive” to American Indians — this, of course, does nothing to the Cleveland Indians logo — by Feb. 1 of 2006. The Daily Pennsylvanian did a story asking if Penn’s Quaker was offensive, and the resounding chorus from actual Quakers was, uhm, no.
But apparently they missed talking to this woman, who has a letter to the editor in the paper today:
I was googling on the Internet this afternoon, and was surprised to learn that the name of the University of Pennsylvania’s basketball team is the Quakers.
I’m an older lady with little interest in basketball. But as a devout Quaker, I was dismayed to see the name of a serious religion used so inappropriately.
It is a discourtesy to a serious religious denomination. While our name is often misused — think cereal — that doesn’t make it any more pleasant.
If you substitute some other denomination — e.g., Baptists or Presbyterians — you’ll see how odd it sounds.
While it is legal to use our name, I see it as uncivil and disrespectful.
May I gently suggest that you find another peppier, non-religious name for your basketball team? Why not make a link to Benjamin Franklin and call your team the Lightning Rods? Have fun with it — just leave us Quakers out of it, please!
Heck, I have a better idea: the University of Pennsylvania Ben Stations. It’s win-win!
Quaker name offensive to some [DP, second letter]
Oct. 12, 2005: And what about those offensive La Salle Explorers?

How about the “Demon Deacons?” Shouldn’t Baptists be offended by Wake Forest’s moniker?
BTW, don’t confuse the Quakers with the Shakers. They’re two entirely different religious sects.
I grew up in the south and can’t think of a scarier mascot that the “Southern Baptists!”
Good one Alan.
‘Quaker’ is derogatory period. This lady really needs to look at the history of her own religion.
Also, jesus christ, it’s just a name. Allah, what loons.
Jesus is a name.
Christ is a title.
