Quaker Man
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Quaker Man (or just "The Quaker") is the mascot of Guilford College, located in Greensboro North Carolina. He is often depicted with a tall hat and buckled shoes reminiscent of the Quaker Oats man. He usually is seen carrying a bell or other noisemaker. He always wears the school colors of maroon and black.
[edit] The Fighting Quaker
One of the more notable nicknames for the Quaker Man is the "Fighting Quaker". This name is more well known and popular than the offical name; "The Quaker". This name is oxymoronic as Quakers, by nature, are pacifists.
