...said Chau. “Our goal is to contribute to the overall pride of the school community.” Chau’s plans to expand his operation to other universities might be met favorably even by Yale’s gridiron enemies, according to Rick Calixto, Harvard’s director of trademark operations. “We always encourage entrepreneurial students to pursue their ideas, and we would certainly be in support of a Harvard sneaker line so long as it fell within accepted traditional parameters,” Calixto said.
