My Alumni license plate frame broke. I can not find one in our own book store shop. I want to get it from “us” so a proceed of the money goes back to “us”. Does anybody have an idea? Thank you much.
Found these online from the UH official store

are you a life member?
Maybe reach out to the alumni office for a replacement?
That’s funny cuz one time I called the Alumni Assoc, explained I was life member and bought a new car and wanted to replace the Life Member sticker on my car. They told me to go to the bookstore-they have lots of stickers.
So no longer do I promote the Alumni Assoc membership on the back of my car. My UH plates demonstrate my loyalty to CoogVille.
This is a good one , maybe go in the store first and we bought 2 or go online
I paid for my wife’s lifetime membership (she’s not an alumni) and have an extra one, new. PM me you can have it.

Even if you don’t buy it from UH some of the money goes back to UH as long as it has the officially licensed sticker on it.

I have one that I ordered from EBay.
I was looking for a custom cougar plate from the '70s I bought this license plate frame and now am trying to mock up a rear bumper for my Cougartorium Annex (garage) complete with UH bumper stickers and era correct license plate, currently I have a '72 plate from my car but am thinking 76-78 when I mock it up. I’m a little weird.
Going for this vibe

Be careful, that frame is illegal now in Texas.
Only if it covers up 50% or more of the word “TEXAS.”
Are you looking at the picture, its covering 95% of Texas.
Sidelines,
I am sorry you got that treatment from the AA ! I have many times asked for and received Alumni stickers when I got a new car. You probably got a hold of a part time student helper. Don’t give up !
Go Coogs !
So I am strongly considering purchasing the following license plate frame:
My only concern is potentially being pulled over by law enforcement. Part of TRANSP § 504.945 says:
(a) A person commits an offense if the person attaches to or displays on a motor vehicle a license plate that:
(1) is issued for a different motor vehicle;
(2) is issued for the vehicle under any other motor vehicle law other than by the department;
(3) is assigned for a registration period other than the registration period in effect;
(4) is fictitious;
(5) has blurring or reflective matter that significantly impairs the readability of the name of the state in which the vehicle is registered or the letters or numbers of the license plate number at any time;
(6) has an attached illuminated device or sticker, decal, emblem, or other insignia that is not authorized by law and that interferes with the readability of the letters or numbers of the license plate number or the name of the state in which the vehicle is registered; or
(7) has a coating, covering, protective substance, or other material that:
(A) distorts angular visibility or detectability;
(B) alters or obscures one-half or more of the name of the state in which the vehicle is registered; or
(C) alters, covers, or obscures the letters or numbers of the license plate number or the color of the plate.
I don’t believe the “Cougars” part on top obscures one-half of the word “TEXAS”. Of course I would not know unless I do go ahead with the purchase and install it. Maybe I am overthinking this, but what do you guys think?
From my understanding that style is legal because it has the Cougars very small so that you can still read the state.
This style is what is illegal.
I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advise.
Are cops really giving tickets for license plate holders???
