I am wondering if since it is open-source, educational, and free, if it gets any legal
free-ground in terms of licensing, logos, copyright, or simply in general. Thanks!

Answer by Rose D
Nope. But the owners of the licenses/logos etc might be more willing to let you use their property for free or for a reduced fee.

Best answer:

Answer by Prof
Ask the school. I don’t’ know what STEM is or OPT. This may help: Explore the Official MBA Guide. It’s a comprehensive free public service with more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. It allows you to search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by listing your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs. Schools report their accreditation status, tuition cost, number of students, class sizes, program length, and a lot of other data. Schools provide data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees, and much more. You can use the Guide to contact schools of your choice, examine their data, visit their web site, and send them pre applications. You can see lists of top 40 schools ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria.

Best answer:

Answer by Avi Kaye
I must admit, I’ve never heard about BirdView (I’ll check it out) :) . I work with HappyTODOS, which is excellent at managing projects of all sizes. The UI is a bit clunky, but they say an upgrade is on the way, along with an iPad app.

OEM means original equipment manufacturer. It means a plain box and no instructions, pamphlets or other literature, cables, or accessories, only the product.
