The University of Connecticut was established in 1881.  The land and some of the very first funding for the university was provided by two brothers Augustus and Charles Storrs. Over the years the institution went through some changes to its name and size and was eventually named the University of Connecticut in 1939.
 
The teams however were named the Huskies in 1934 when the name of the college was changed to Connecticut State College. The name was selected when the campus’s newspaper ran a poll to select the new mascot for the athletic teams. A husky dog was the overwhelming choice of most students which was then duly approved. The Husky dog was called Jonathan as a tribute to their governor in the War-era Jonathan Trumbull. The first ever mascot was a white and brown dog but since then it has been shown as a completely white one thus becoming a symbol of identification of the Uconn Huskies that remains till this day.
