Durham college mascots

Random question, but do the Durham colleges all have mascots? If so, what are they all?

There is also mention online of college cats... Is this still a thing?

I am pretty sure all colleges here have a mascot! Our mascot (at Josephine Butler) is a mole. Some of the other college mascots include Felix the Phoenix for Grey College, the goat for St Chad's College, and Oswald the owl for South College.

I will link some of the college websites below which is probably the best way to find out more about mascots…

South College
Grey College

You could also checkout our colleges playlist where you can get more of a sense of what the atmosphere of our colleges is like.
