EEB T-Shirts For Sale!
Orders must be placed by February 12. Shirts cost only $12 each, and all profits will go towards GREBE-sponsored travel grants for EEB graduate students.
More information from Riley Bernard, GREBE President:
GREBE has been wanting to make EEB T-shirts for the last few years and we have finally found a way to do it! We held a T-shirt design contest, with the winning design created by Max Rupp (a Master’s student in Darrin Hulsey’s lab). In an attempt to minimize screen-printing costs and maximize profit, we decided to go with Teespring.com. This company allows you to design a t-shirt, make a campaign bid and sell the shirts at a low price, all while taking orders via paypal. We have set the price at $12 a shirt, with a goal of selling 30 shirts. If we reach our goal of 30 (deadline by February 12), the t-shirts will be printed and sent to you within 10-14 days (shipping is $3.85). You will only be charged for the shirt if 30 are ordered by the deadline. All profits will go towards GREBE-sponsored travel grants for EEB graduate students.
Please order shirts for all your friends and family 🙂 and if you have questions, please let me know.
