| Concurrent Use Statement | Central Michigan University had trademarked rights to the mark CMU previously, but did not file the forms to renew the mark so it was canceled. We're applying for a new registration for the same mark for the same goods and services. However, when the rights were active, Central Michigan University, Carnegie Mellon University, and Colorado Mesa University entered into an agreement to all use the letters CMU. |
