Dallas Area Institute Continues Branding As “TexAM University At Dallas” After The A&M System Sends A Cease And Desist Letter

A Dallas area institute continues branding as “TexAM University at Dallas” after the A&M system sends a cease and desist letter. Last Friday (May 8), the A&M system issued a news release announcing a formal objection to that the system believe is the unauthorized use of the Texas A&M university name and trademarks by a private institution. The system announced sending a cease and desist letter demanding that the Texas American Muslim Institute of Technology in the Dallas suburb of Richardson stop using names, marks, domains, and branding elements that infringe upon or dilute A&M’s trademarks. As of the following Monday (May 11), the institute’s website is still branding itself as “TexAM University at Dallas”. The institute’s website as of Monday did not have a response to the A&M system’s demand to remove the branding. The institute’s website promotes itself as the “first University in USA to offer STEM degree programs embedded with mandatory Courses in Islamic Studies.” News release from the Texas A&M system: Officials with The Texas A&M University System have formally objected to the unauthorized use of the Texas A&M University name and trademarks by a Muslim education entity in North Texas that is branding itself as “TexAM University.” The Texas A&M University System has issued a cease-and-desist letter demanding that the entity immediately stop using names, marks, domains and branding elements that infringe upon or dilute Texas A&M’s trademarks. Use of “TexAM,” “Texas AM University,” and similar variations creates confusion and misleads the public. The entity is not affiliated with or endorsed by Texas A&M University or The Texas A&M University System. “The Texas A&M University System has a responsibility to protect the name and trademarks, which represent more than a century of academic excellence, public trust and institutional integrity,” said Chancellor Glenn Hegar of The Texas A&M University System. “When another organization uses branding that is similar, particularly in the same educational space, we must act to prevent confusion and protect the value of those marks.” The entity, formally known as the Texas American Muslim Institute of Technology at Dallas, is not recognized as a university by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. A&M System officials are prepared to pursue all necessary legal remedies
