Help the Atlanta Alumni Club get UM-themed Georgia license plates

Submitted by oriental andrew on

I no longer live in Atlanta, but was born and raised there and spent several years post-college back in ATL. 

The Atlanta alumni club is trying to drum up support from GA residents for a UM-themed license plate. If you live in Georgia, please support the cause.

As a sidenote, itgetting a UM license plate in Illinois has been explored, but it's been stymied. The rule is that you can only request plates from PRIVATE universities in "contiguous states" and having at least 10k alumni residing in the state.

It's known as "the notre dame law" according to mgoblogger bluefish:
