This year's shirt claims to list Yale's "new" Internet address: www.safetyschool.org.
In fact, an enterprising council member acquired that domain name, Eccleston said, and the council plans to develop the website as a satire on Yale to provide a tie-in to the shirts. When shirt sales began yesterday, the site was still undeveloped.
The council's shirt has drawn criticism from its competitors--such as the Harvard Independent-- for its "kind of bland" design.
The Harvard Independent's T-shirts, created by their design staff, depict a crimson-clad man staring down the Yale bulldog, but some students have seen a less wholesome image when coupled with the motto, "Yale Sucks."
Sales have been brisk, with approximately 550 of the 650 sold or expected to sell, according to Alexander P. Nyren '02, the managing editor of the Independent.
Besides making money, Nyren said the reason for the Independent's foray into the T-shirt business was to raise the newspaper's public profile in the student body.
All three groups tabled simultaneously outside the Science Center yesterday afternoon, and have put in appearances in dining halls and Loker Commons to hawk their wares this week.
