re: What was your opinion when your school introduced a new logo?

Believe it or not both current and former students hate the Bevel. I am not an Engineering student if that is what you are implying. If the Bevel is so great why isn't it on the helmet?

The Texas A&M beveled logo is embarrassing. The thread was about SEC school logos. It doesn't make any sense for a University with programs in Engineering, Computer Visualization, Architecture, Construction Science and others curriculums with core classes in 3D rendering to have a logo that fails basic geometry. In addition to that it is aesthetically weak, unbalanced, and looks bad on small embroidered items such as hats. Leave The Bevel in the Big 12 where it belongs.

Sorry about the length of the letter. Aggies really do want to know the opinions of SEC fans on the beveled logo. Most Aggies hate it and don't think it fits in the SEC.
As Maroon Flash stated there is going to be a Student Senate ballot questions added to the 2013 Fall Student Body Elections ballot.

I don't think Texas A&M's beveled logo fits in the SEC. It was really more of a Big 12 fad.
We still use the Classic Block aTm logo on merchandise and more importantly on the helmet.
Between September 2012 and March 2013 the following letter was sent to the leadership of Texas A&M. I don't know how any Aggie can read this letter in its entirety and decide that the beveled logo is our very best option as our primary mark. Our logo is vitally important – it is the fundamental building block of our branding and marketing program. The Classic Block aTm captures the essence of our image in its simplest and purest form. Continuing to use the beveled logo doesn't make it less flawed or any more acceptable. Names and contact information in this letter have been obscured for privacy; the content is what is most important. For cell phone users the letter will probably be easier to read here... NoBevel.com

I'm excited to be on this forum. I'm a new member here.
I've read all 13 pages of this thread and I have a few questions for Ball Gravy.
1) You mentioned the timetable of Texas A&M going to the SEC would be much much sooner than June. Does that mean days from now, weeks, months?
2) Does TCU going to the Big East make it easier for A&M to go to the SEC or does the fact that TCU is private make it a bad comparison?
3) Are you still giving the probability of this happening a 9.5 out of 10?
4) Are there any other details about Texas A&M going to the SEC that you can share here?
Thanks
