pure trademark

Read a random definition: Section 5

A quick definition of pure trademark:

A pure trademark is a special word, picture, or symbol that a company uses to show that their product is different from others. It's like a signature for their product. To be protected by the law, the trademark must be unique, put on products that are sold, and registered with the government. If someone else uses the same trademark, the owner can take legal action. There are different types of trademarks, like ones that describe the product or ones that are made up words. A trademark is important because it helps people know which product they are buying and who made it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A pure trademark is a word, phrase, logo, or symbol used by a manufacturer or seller to distinguish its product or products from those of others. The main purpose of a trademark is to designate the source of goods or services. To receive federal protection, a trademark must be distinctive, affixed to a product that is actually sold in the marketplace, and registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Unregistered trademarks are protected under common-law only, and distinguished with the mark “TM.”

Example: Nike's "swoosh" logo is a pure trademark that distinguishes its products from those of other athletic apparel companies. The logo is distinctive and registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, giving Nike legal protection against others using a similar logo to sell their products.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a pure trademark, in this case, Nike's "swoosh" logo, is used to distinguish a company's products from those of its competitors. The logo is distinctive and registered, giving Nike legal protection against others using a similar logo to sell their products.

I have not had a date change either for Mich but I've seen people get in without one so who knows

The "date changes" at Michigan really don't mean anything. We had to do them in undergrad admissions whenever a Georgia applicant picked the country instead of the state, because we'd have to remove the TOEFL requirement and reassign the application from the international application readers.

Classy, does that mean they may look at your application, and that look doesn't necessarily trigger any date change?

@soapy: I don't know for sure about the law school. For undergrad, once the application is complete, it's assigned to a reader the following Monday. If we had to make any changes, it's because a reader saw something that needed to be changed and the application needed to be re-read after that change.

Ahh, got it. Thank you for the insight!

You're welcome. FWIW, I have no idea what's up with the address changes. We didn't have to do any of that, except for the Georgia state vs country kinds of things.

I've heard it theorized that some schools will change the address from "St." --> "Street" as they prepare to send out admissions packets. That's the rumor, anyways.
i think it just indicates a change in status like under review or stages of review
my stanford address went long as soon as it was marked complete lmao
