SHOULD THE UNIVERSITY SUE BUSINESSES THAT SELL UNLICENSED PRODUCTS RELATED TO KU?
FAWAD AHMAD Wichita, freshman
"No, I don't think they should. Other businesses should have the opportunity to sell whatever they want. It's just another way to make money."
GREG WESELOH
Liberty, MO., freshman
"I don't think so. They put the Joe-College logo on there for a reason. It's not like they're calling it licensed merchandise."
SAMANTHA HARPER Hayes, graduate student
"On the 'pro' side, I'd say they should because that could increase revenue for the University and maybe decrease our tuition. If they're doing it commercially and not for a non-profit, then I think it's something they should pursue legally."
KATIE OBERTHALER Wichita, freshman
"If it's taking money away from the University, I would think it would be within their bounds to do that."

ODD NEWS Runaway turkey causes traffic jam on NY bridge
NEW YORK — Perhaps attempting to escape a Thanksgiving Day fate, a small wild turkey made a dash for the big city.
The 10-pound female bird wandered onto a busy bridge's toll plaza Tuesday afternoon, halting traffic for about 15 minutes as workers chased the fowl.
No one knew how the turkey got onto the Triborough Bridge. City officials received a call that there was a loose bird just before the start of the evening rush hour, and six officers chased it around the Manhattan toll plaza.
"Watching it unfold on our cameras, it seemed the only thing missing was someone playing "Turkey in the Straw" said Triborough Bridge General Operations Manager Ray Bush.
The frightened turkey skittered back and forth across the plaza, evading capture for 15 minutes. Bridge officers finally cornered it, and a construction worker snatched it.
The turkey was released into a wooded area on nearby Wards Island.
