[civsa] freebies

[Brian Turk]

Donna,

Greetings back from unusually warm northern Minnesota - although I think
our unusually warm and yours probably differ.

We aren't necessarily large - but we do have a total student population of
12,000 at the University of Minnesota Duluth. It is our Office of
Admissions that handles these requests. It is extremely rare for us to
honor an individual request for a freebie, however, we do honor requests
from high schools that fit within our typical market area. Often this is a
pennant or a t-shirt depending on what the need is. If it is for post-prom
or other events that are similar it is a t-shirt. We actually do orders
(our design, our vendor) of t-shirts and pennants specifically for these
purposes.

Hope this helps.

Brian
