I'm not sure about recent years, but Brown University had a skating
bear, "Butch Bruno" (more commonly known as "Bruno"), from the late
'70s and at least through the mid '80s.  [Side note of only minor
interest:  the first skating Bruno (to my knowledge) was a guy who's
last name really was Bruno.]
 
Dartmouth used to have indians up to the early '80s (stopped after some
sort of stupid incident that I only vaguely recall).
 
I think that I've also seen skating mascots at NU and Yale, but they
were not regulars and my memory is a bit foggy.
