ChicagoBill Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 has anyone near campus been to the bookstore? is the selection an improvement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmith19 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Not as many t-shirt/sweatshirt options with the new Billiken at the bookstore, but they do have some cool items with the new school seal (mugs, banners, keychains, bottle openers, etc.) that I didn't see at the Arena store.

jimbofive Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Tribe X; ferguson protestors If this is true, then they can suck my doggie's dick. I suppose they'd like the White Sox to be called the Black Sox as well? Piss up a rope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majerus mojo Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 You might have a home run if you gave the all white one the body of the old sweatered logo spinning a basketball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMouthBilliken Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Glad our money is going to new logos instead of keeping the students safe and informed. Two on campus gunpoint muggings near the Ulofts and Standard apartments near Picklemans and not a single DPS email or tweet. pathetic. Students shouldn't have to spread this by word of mouth, that's the university's job. How hard is it to send a damn email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutschkind Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 DPS sent an email (at least about the Lofts) within an hour and a half of the incident Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMouthBilliken Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 DPS sent an email (at least about the Lofts) within an hour and a half of the incident Got it at 10:05 and report said it happened at 850. A faster email/tweet couldn't have been sent out at least notifying students to be careful? takes like 2 seconds to tweet something. Also, the girl was robbed at gunpoint and slapped in the face! what kind of animal does this? and yet people want to protest on our campus...

Old guy Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Billikenfan05 some people live to complain. My ex was like that. She could find fault in most things and events, she generally was disappointed in one way or the other. People like this have a very hard time with their lives, first of all trying to figure out how most of everything around themselves is not up to par, and second worrying about what the future will bring. They apparently love to feel like victims, that somehow, in ways I never understood, seems to makes them feel better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnbj14 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 From a few people that I've talked to, the rolling out of merchandise with the new logo is a gradual process. They still have a fair number of stuff from the previous design and have to clear that stuff out before the full switch is made. The timeline that the bookstore manager gave me was about 18 months, but that by the time this school year is over it should be mostly new items. The only reason it might take a while is because some of the non-clothing items don't sell as quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbj14 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I assume old logo stuff will be put on sale and agressively discounted? From what I was told, the big sales would be the typical pre-Christmas and end of academic year ones. After that, I would guess the remaining current gear would be discounted heavily so they can complete the process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMM28 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Another roll out fail. I think the only successful part of the rebrand process was that they were able to get a solid crowd into the Arena for that event. Other than that, D- or F on everything else.

Who said anything about a marketing campaign? Is it too much to ask to have the roll out be at a date that makes sense with plenty of merchandise with the new brand that you spent high 5 or low 6 figures to create? I don't think that is asking much at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Try mid six figures, this rebranding was not done on the cheap side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
