I'll Wear Your Clothes for Money
Times are tough for universities everywhere. Shrinking endowments have forced some schools to close departments, some to double tuition, and many others to freeze salaries and hiring. While the administration claims that CMU is doing better than its competition, I can't help but thinking of steps to guarantee that we can make ends meet.
I therefore have decided to start a limited-time offer: I'll wear clothes with your logo for money. Think about it, big software companies, what better way to recruit the top students than having their professor directly advertise to them? You'll see the results faster than you can say "Targeted Advertisement!"
I will wear your paraphernalia during every lecture. The prices quoted here are per semester.

ReplyDeleteLuis, while I'm sure your students hang on your every word, I would you won't be crushed to discover that there may be better brand placement opportunities to target their visual attention, e.g., sponsoring outfits for the aerobics / spinning classes. I vaguely recall those being set up so that people could watch the classes while eating at the University Center.
