Rutgers is being a total ahole, and how can you trademark a block letter?
U Wisc sued Wofford yrs back because Wofford was using a W that looked like Wisc's, but that W is very individualistic.
but a block R isn't, and seems generic to me.
too bad some Ruston law firm didn't have the were with all to help the school tell Rutgers to go blank themself.
it's like saying you have the rights to the sign for we're number 1.
could get interesting with Illinois and Indiana.
Your clueless regarding trademark law. RU is just protecting what is legally theirs. If they don't, they run the risk of losing it. You would probably be first in line also to rip the university if they lost the trademark by not taking action to protect it.
