Hey Showker family, how does "Mr. Chips, presented by Zane Showker" sound?

Do you disagree that if someone wants to give 50 million to business school or athletics they aren't renaming it? IF that was the donor stipulation and they did not that would be really dumb.

No, I totally agree. I just think Zane's Chips is a funny concept.

I also believe (and I am likely in the minority here) that it's corny as hell to want your name all over stuff. It's bordering on narcissistic. But if someone wants their name on things to prove to everyone that they're a BSD, sure, go for it.

A lot of time it is not the individual it gets named after who asks for it, but a descendant or friend. See King Hall. Pretty sure Charlie didn't ask for a name to be put on the building, but he meant enough to JMU.
