The elite $60,000-a-year Collegiate School in , the oldest private school in the nation, spent three years debating it's Dutchman mascot and motto and issued a woke 400-page report that critics called 'overkill.'The Upper Westside school, which taught John F. Kennedy Jr. and David Duchovny, began looking into it's mascot - a winking Dutchman- and motto - 'Unless God, then in vain' - in 2019, ultimately considering both potentially offensive when the report was published in 2020. After reviewing the report for more than a year, the 394-year-old institution refashioned its mascot last week to avoid feelings of excessive eurocentrism, swapping out the winking Dutchman with a silhouetted colonial figure figure holding a lantern.
