You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication.

Yes, you would need a license. Your venture would be covered by the same laws as everyone else. You might come under the radar screen but you are no less in violation of the law than a company that blatantly rips off the rights of college and prints and sells thousands of unlicensed shirts. The only difference is that you plan is smaller. I suggest that you reconsider your idea as does violate the law.
