RE: ODU Merchandise
Go figure. I'm sitting in the CB in Edinburgh after my 4 year old this morning goes "let's go to crackah bills" and I was like wtf? That's his grandpa's name. My wife explains she told him last night we'd go here before home depot.

You're kidding right? CNU and Radford? Dominate? What exactly are they dominating? A CNU car sticker is an aberration in South Hampton Roads, the only thing rarer is a Radford sticker. Meanwhile I pass five houses on my street in extreme east Norfolk/almost Virginia Beach with ODU stickers on the cars or a flag in the yard not counting mine. It is not a long street. To paraphrase Mark Twain: "The reports of our lack of school pride have been greatly exaggerated."
There are 2 CNU stickers on the same street 1 block from each other over in Colonial Place pretty close to my friends place.
But yeah, not many CNU or RU stickers over here.
There are a bunch more CNU flags etc... closer to their campus though.

RE: ODU Merchandise
My point is the ODU Alumni association and ODU admissions/student services need to do a better job of building school pride and continuing that after graduation. ODU should be everywhere you look in our region.

RE: ODU Merchandise
Yes, but I doubt it will happen. There are quite a few members of leadership in different departments that want to see the school advertise. (MBA program being 1 I can think of right away). Problem is, they can't get the money to do so. Also, they shockingly the don't have any ideas as to how to do it.... How the heck can a business program not know how to do effective marketing?

We had lunch at the Western Branch CB yesterday, and my wife picked up a couple of these pillows there.

The Edinburgh one must be too close to NC. UNC stuff out numbered everything else.

eFollet, not ODU, operates the bookstore website. So, while ODU may demonstrate incompetence at times, this one is not on on ODU.

I have one and if I were more computer literate I would provide a photo. I'll keep working on it though.

I hope Chandler does still read these boards. If I were him I sure would. What a great, easy way to get the pulse of the fans and we have some good ideas every now and then too.
