Austin American-Statesman: Burnt Orange Productions stops making films
july 2008 by McChris

march 2008 by McChris
A lawsuit against a company using an orange longhorn emblem was dismissed because a study revealed few people associate the motif with UT. Although I think UT over-reaches in protecting its trademark, it seems pretty clear they were using the logo here.

The UT System Crash Course in Copyright
september 2006 by McChris
The design of this site is straight-up 1996 (I think it's generated from PowerPoint slides) but this could be a useful resource for teaching or getting other grad students on the same page.
