Shaw on activities related to the protection, promotion and use of the Syracuse University name and trademarks on products in the marketplace. It also works to ensure that SU trademarks are used only on quality products printed with appropriate graphics so the image conveyed protects the name and reputation of the University.

Interested applicants must include an outline of their academic and work history, an explanation of what prompted their interest in the position, and their anticipated contribution. Applications, addressed to the Search Committee of the Trademark Licensing Advisory Board, should be submitted on paper or electronically to The Office of Trademark Licensing, 303 University Place, Syracuse, NY 13244-2020, or to Betsy English at geenglis@syr.edu.
