Hello kswear-ga,

Considering the price of your question, I doubt that anyone can give
you a comprehensive answer. Will a short list of quickly found schools
be an acceptable answer? If you need detailed information here's a
book that might be your best bet. "Mascots!" $29.95. Second Edition by
Roy E. Yarbrough, Ed .D,ISBN 1-891248-00-6330,  Pages, Perfect Bound,
Soft Cover, New Edition! Available February 2005!

Will the short list of schools and the link to this book be a satisfactory answer?

All the best.

Hello kswear-ga,

What a fun search. After a bit of digging, I?m convinced that there
are only two colleges that have Ducks as the school mascot. They are
the University of Oregon in Eugene and Stevens Institute of Technology
in Hoboken, New Jersey. There are some non-college teams with the
Ducks mascot if you care to extend your explorations.

Enjoy!

This was exactly what I was looking for.  Thanks so much.

If any, not as many as have bear mascots (recollection of an earlier question).
Geese could be a better possibility; at least with geese, you could
have a college slogan about keeping your head up high.     But ducks
...?
