I suppose now would be a good time to bump this.
Let's be honest here...
Wake was founded on tobacco money, on the backs of slaves, don't you think the money would be better spent in the ghettos of Winston-Salem than on some silly pet project of jerks (pardon my tone) on a message board?
I guess that's up to contributors? Nothing saying they couldn't do both? Also: It's a $10 t-shirt. This is no different than preaching to people walking into Starbucks. Except that this is going to end up with a few rich Wake students getting free t-shirts.
By the way: I did get in touch with James Beshara, the WFU grad who founded Crowdtilt. He's more than willing to help with the cause and spruce up the campaign. Beyond that, I'm not really sure what I could ask of him. There's not much Crowdtilt can do on their end to get projects more awareness, AFAIK.
If we could just recruit people, to recruit people, to recruit people to sell shirts, and charge those people = Profit. If you drew out the business model, I imagine it would be pyramid shaped with you on top.
This thread has been viewed hundreds of times, the time spent reading it and the time you've spent with this campaign to remove a good man and a better coach could have been much better re-purposed.
We only have 8 contributors so far. This is awful. What is wrong with you people?????
I was privately pledged about $300-400, but it doesn't look like any of those pledges have been made on the campaign yet.
