Eugene, Ore — A high school in Okoboji Iowa seems to have a little “O” in common with the University of Oregon. The UO has recently asked the high school to stop using Oregon’s nationally recognized “O” logo, which was trademarked and designed by Nike, for Oregon.

Superintendent Gary Janssen has agreed to phase out the high school’s maroon version of the logo. Janssen has informed University of Oregon that the school will need time to phase out the logo, due to the fact that the district has used the logo for 10 years, and their scoreboard and gear is plastered with the “O.”
