The Board of Regents Wednesday re-visited a decades-old policy banning the use of college logos on burial items like coffins or urns, allowing fans to bring their love for their alma maters into the hereafter. A Macon-based business, Collegiate Memorials, asked the Regents to loosen the rules and after a closer look at other states' policies, members of the board relented.
The ban was part of a policy written in 1982, that prohibited logos on burial items, sex toys and alcoholic beverages, among others.
"You still can't put a logo on a toilet seat, but you can now put one on a casket," said John Millsaps, spokesman for the University System.
