A group of Washington State University student entrepreneurs in Pullman have custom designed a “Go Cougs” blanket that is being manufactured by Pendleton Woolen Mills. The students are in a new animal sciences class focused on entrepreneurship and niche marketing.
The startup costs of the entrepreneurship class were funded by a U.S. Department of Agriculture grant. With crimson stripes on a gray background, the 64-inch, square, wool stadium blanket features the WSU Cougar head logo. Blankets are available through the students’ class website: http://www.gocougs.biz.
