UL is best but technically illegal.

LA is legal as a ticker and is not confused visually with L.A.

LARC is fine as a sports ticker abbreviation...
A sports ticker abbreviation is not the same as what we would use on caps and uni's....for example, when you look up a Louisville score the abbreviation is LOU but they use the single "L" on caps and UNIs. Everyone knows Oklahoma as "OU" but on a sports ticker they are known as "OKLA". I would bet ULA would have been legal to give the SunBelt when they requested a sports ticker abbreviation or Even LU. And no, Lamar is not known as LU on sports tickers, it's LAM.

I'm beginning to like LARC. It would be just a ticker, and says who we are without violating any of those idiotic laws....and no Lafayette in sight.

The thread topic involves about 63,762 different subtopics... where exactly was this particular plane supposed to land?

Who knows? Back to the report...I just hope that the report is being studied and discussed by those who need to.

I'm sticking with UL.

Interesting , Credible sources outside the University
