FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Six American Indian students at the University of North Dakota say they've filed a federal lawsuit over the school's Fighting Sioux nickname.
The complaint alleges that a new law requiring the school to keep the nickname violates the state constitution and reverses a court-ordered settlement between UND and the NCAA.
The suit names Gov. Jack Dalrymple, Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem, the state of North Dakota, the state Board of Higher Education and UND.
