well, maybe people are just forgetful. and maybe they're missing what's meant by stickers that say 'university city is a marketing scheme.' (and maybe they're mixed up about what's top and what's bottom, but that's understandable in a spin context :-))

from ucd's marketing plan 2003:

page 27

UCD as Marketer

- As part of its defined core mission, UCD has initiated tactical marketing and communications efforts since its founding--including events, advertising and collateral materials designed to promote University City as well as UCD itself - UCD is the only organization represents the broad constituencies in University City--students, residents, businesspeople--and thus must continue to play an active role in shaping the future of University City


page 28

UCD as Brand Manager

- In that spirit, UCD's future role in marketing University City must be larger and more proactive than it has been--bridging the gap between relevant constituencies' individual efforts and ensuring that University City has a unified marketing voice - Additionally and importantly, UCD must take the leading role in developing, managing and expanding the University City brand--as well as in merchandising University City and its unique assets to residents and outsiders alike - With an aggressive UCD cajoling/guiding/pushing all of University City towards this vision, our chances for success will be greatly enhanced
 - If not UCD, who?
