$ 100 donated. We're now at 28% of goal.

As "old and ugly" as the last one was the original one was powder blue and was in place (I think) at least into the WAC days. Was that one just repainted or was it replaced completely?

Why don't they just paint the old sign?

It's the right color now, but is a version we have not used in over 10 years. Also, it needs lighting.

Yup, not the right logo. It's probably the last large signage that isn't up-to-date with the new state-T standards. Not too long ago Guice got Ruston to repaint the water tower on I-20 with the correct logo.

Mayor Ronny Walker did that and I don't believe it required urging from Dr. Guice.

Love this crowd funded project! Any amount you give makes a difference.

Les Guice tweeted last week,
"Finally have our quote. $30k for a 20-ft sign with channel lighting. Would really be a great addition to the TAC."
Re: Donate for New Signage @ TAC
Bet a Tech & Tails auction could bring in some cash for it.
Re: Donate for New Signage @ TAC
30 percent of the way there. 64 donations posted on the wall... $9,000

Excellent. Malcolm, Marketing directpr and the Athletics Council chair. You gotta love it.
Re: Donate for New Signage @ TAC
We need this Bull Market posted on the Louisiana Tech Facebook page (47k followers)? I see it on the Tech alumni page.

It would be a great centerpiece for such an auction ;)
