Stanford student suspended from serving as Tree mascot
The individual who serves as the Stanford Tree mascot has been suspended after unfurling a banner that read "Stanford hates fun" during the Cardinal's football game against Arizona State on Oct. 22.
It was first announced by the Stanford Tree's Twitter account on Sunday evening.
A Stanford athletic department spokesperson confirmed the suspension, stating, "The students comprising the executive committee of the LSJUMB have suspended the Tree mascot due to a violation of the band's policies and processes."
An individual who previously served as the Tree will take over mascot duties during the suspension.
