I am excited if they use Buffalo in the Canisius University school name I will cry happy tears. It would be a much needed change to put us with Loyola University of Chicago idea I have discussed before. It’s smart business Canisius fans saying why does this matter it does. Canisius is in a battle for relevance in our Buffalo area today. To carry the Buffalo city name where the school is even from is a huge change in the positive direction. Hopefully we get a updated redesign Canisius University of Buffalo, New York logo for the athletic programs along with selling new merchandise hats, t-shirts and sweatshirts for much needed revenue for Canisius. Finally progress we haven’t seen in three decades it’s a miracle and a great day for Canisius if this does happen. To me this a huge step in the right direction and more important for athletics to be able to sell recruits where you are from without explaining to prospective recruits we are located in Buffalo, New York like a broken record in my opinion. Go Griffs! Let’s Go Buffalo

The school's survival strategy isn't about attracting more kids from Buffalo. It's the opposite. Buffalo's potential enrollment base is shrinking. There are too many schools and not enough kids. The economic base of Buffalo also favors a lower cost vs. private education. Selling t-shirts isn't going to generate the necessary revenue. The school needs to attract more students under grad & grad to 2001 Main Street. We're limited on real estate and we need to be smart on what our "real difference" is vs. similar schools. This isn't an easy task and let's hope we have a viable long term strategy. We haven't had that since Demske & Cooke. Go Griffs!

Can the book store please get rid of the blue and white lettered battleship grey sweat shirts? And please, less hoodies and traditional Canisius blue and gold sweat shirts again. I know the students like hoodies, but there are also Alumni/ae. Will there be "Canisius University" sweat shirts this Fall?
