“Experience the Jackrabbits”

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008 by Brad J. Ward

I could not stop laughing about this article. It details the process of getting a new athletic logo at South Dakota State University. If my math is correct, they ended up spending $7,000 to get the logo ($6K to original firm +$1K for contest).

At one point, the school took the designers to a field so they could ‘experience the jackrabbits’. I would have loved to see the look on the designers’ faces.

I’m not quite sure why I love working in higher ed so much.  It’s always interesting, though.
