UNCG has new looks with both the institutional logo and the athletic/spirit logo. Full disclosure: I like the change quite a bit, and if I didn't, I'd probably keep my mouth shut - can't bite the hand that feeds me. The institutional look has been termed a "brand refresh," and still features the tried and true Minerva shield.
