The intercollegiate competitors of my alma mater, Williams College, are called the Ephmen after Colonel Ephraim Williams, founder of the college and a hero of the French and Indian War. He was memorialized in a painting called the Bloody Morning Scout based on the day in 1755 he lost his life fighting near Lake George Village in New York.

So, did the college base their mascot on him? No. Their mascot is a purple cow named Ephelia. It is my avatar here.
