Chief Illiniwek was retired early last year, but he danced again at the University of Illinois.
The independent group Students for Chief Illiniwek rented Assembly Hall on Nov. 15, hosting about 9,000 people. The event included a performance by Logan Ponce, a student chosen to be a sort of chief-in-waiting in case the university ever reinstates the mascot.
