Summary
| Description |
English: A gopher wearing an Indian headdress was designed as the MIS Language School mascot in 1943 by MIS student Chris Ishii, a Disney Studios animator before the war. The language school was located at the time at Camp Savage, in former Lakota territory in Minnesota, commonly known as “the Gopher State.” The Savage gopher was not official, but Nisei veterans of the MIS used it as their emblem for years, until complaints from Native Americans led to its replacement 50 years later. |
