Carlisle schools pay $1 for wildcat logo (Des Moines Register.com)

Well, almost free.

The Carlisle schools will have to pay Kansas State University $1 to use the Manhattan, Kan., school’s wildcat logo for the next three years.

Kansas State’s decision to allow the Warren County school district to use its logo is a far cry from the troubles Waukee, a Dallas County school district, faced when dealing with the University of Wisconsin at Madison and its “W.”
