Will Trump be Dean of mean? - DAVE GOLDINER, NEW YORK DAILY NEWS

Get ready for Dean Donald to utter the words, "You're graduated!" And maybe Prof. Omarosa will be soon stepping up to the blackboard, too. Donald Trump has applied for a trademark for the name Trump University, meaning the master of self-promotion could soon be molding the minds of future moguls. The proposal from the star of TV's "The Apprentice" didn't say much about the planned institution of higher learning, but apparently it won't compete with Harvard or Columbia for the best and brightest. Trump says that the college will conduct only "online instruction in the fields of business and real estate." Trump's lawyer filed a three-page application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for the planned Trump U. on Aug. 4 and paid a $335 fee - small change for a billionaire.
