F-1 Nonimmigrant Student Status.

BREAKING! Today, U.S. District Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV granted nationwide preliminary relief in the lawsuit challenging the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) final rule ending the Duration of Status (D/S) policy for international students, exchange visitors, and representatives of foreign media. The court effectively blocked the rule from taking effect and prohibited DHS and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement from implementing it while the case continues.

As a result, the longstanding Duration of Status framework remains in place nationwide! Read the full statement from NAFSA and the other plaintiffs.

United States Patent and Trademark Office and retro television, The Golden Girls!

🎵 Thank you for being a friend🎵

Forty-one years ago on this day, the Golden Girls premiered on television.

The wickedly sassy series, starring Estelle Getty as Sophia, Bea Arthur as Dorothy, Betty White as Rose, and Rue McClanahan as Blanche, followed four women sharing a Miami home. It was an instant hit and eventually all four of its stars won Emmys.

The Golden Girls brand continues to this day with trademarks covering goods ranging from t-shirts (Registration No. 5903346) to board games (Registration No. 5903347) and services like re-broadcasts of the television show (Registration No. 6078024). The show’s magic bridged generations, just like its trademark portfolio.

Gather your friends, enjoy some cheesecake, and learn how to protect your brands by registering your trademarks with America’s Branding Agency: https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics
