Hard to update something that's suppose to be 'Iconic'

Saw this at UnBeige:

The Logo Strikes Again! Boston magazine asked several design firms to recreate different college logos and what was produced was a mixture of Crazy (just because it's MIT doesn't mean you have to design it in AutoCad) Hip (the blocked-out H in Harvard is innovative, but so not right....as if the university decided to completely sidestep the whole college application process of rejection and go straight to punching you in the face with how much better they are than you...you can't even understand their LOGO) and actually Decent (the bottom Boston College logo is simple, less dated and more intellectual...i like it!)



Go to Boston's website to see the designer's defense for their recreations.
