In January 2025, the [[Student Government Communications Committee (SGCC)|Student Government/Senate/Committees/Stugov Communications Committee (Sgcc)]] wanted to create a mascot for their Student Senate Newsletter. Initially, members thought of a Puckman alternative, however, it was decided to go with a squirrel, given their prevalence on the RPI Campus.

The name Sasha was chosen for three primary reason:
9
- It was an homage to former Graduate Senator Sasha Lutsevich.
10
- It's a gender-neutral name.
11
- The alliteration of "**S**asha the **S**quirrel" sounded catchy.

SGCC Member Natalie Hrytsyna drew up a few drafts, which now result in the first and current design of Sasha the Squirrel.
