May 17, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture, University Loft Company

Here in Central Indiana, spring brings a rain of maple keys. You know, those weird maple tree seed-thingies. As kids, we called them “helicopters” or “whirlybirds” because they spin like a helicopter rotor when falling from the sky. I’m no horticulturist, but I understand that the rooted seeds have to undergo a couple of changes [...]

Better Ingredients. Better University Furniture. University Loft.

May 4, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture

As a marketing aficionado, I pay attention to such things as taglines, unique selling propositions, and how companies express their competitive advantages. One series of TV commercials always makes me nod in appreciation of the tagline used. You’ve probably seen Papa John’s pizza founder (and Indiana native) John Schnatter saying “Better Ingredients. Better Pizza. Papa [...]

April 20, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, University Furniture, University Loft Company

It’s a commonly held belief that there is strength in numbers: Two heads are better than one. All for one, one for all. The more the merrier. And on and on.

What’s the Word for Fear of Choosing the Wrong Student Furniture?

March 29, 2012 Bob Customization, Environment, Green Initiatives, Personalization, Quality, University Furniture

Did you know that there’s an actual term for the fear of long words? Ironically, it’s this: hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia. Say that three times fast. Or not. There are lots of terms that denote one kind of fear or another. You probably recognize claustrophobia (fear of being closed in or confined in a tight space), acrophobia (fear [...]

Indy’s Children’s Museum and University Loft Make a Difference in Learning

March 27, 2012 Bob Environment, Quality, University Furniture

We took a family outing to the Indianapolis Children’s Museum recently, taking in newer exhibits and revisiting some continuing favorites. With 3-year old Kaden in tow, we found ourselves spending less time than we wanted in each exhibit because their was so much to see and experience in the world’s largest children’s museum. It occurred [...]

The Race is On and University Loft Student Furniture Wins Every Time!

March 21, 2012 Bob Customization, Environment, Personalization, Quality, University Furniture

As I write this, the NASCAR racing season is upon us, and as a race fan, I’m excited. Truth is, though, it’s a long journey between the beginning of the season at Daytona and the final race at Homestead. Teams and drivers must do more than excel in a single race; they must be peak [...]

University Loft’s Green Student Furniture Story is an Open Book

March 2, 2012 Bob Environment, Green Initiatives, Quality, University Furniture, University Loft Company

Why don’t some student furniture manufacturers talk much about the materials that go into their furniture for college and university student housing? Maybe its because they aren’t as proud of how their products are made as we are at University Loft Company. ULoft student furniture is made from solid wood and is strong enough to [...]
