Hello, thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're glad you find the glasses to be of good quality, though sorry they didn't fully meet your expectations. The etching is actually a printed logo with multiple passes and a clear varnish to create the illusion of being part of the mold. It's not intended to be an etching, and we will re-work the description to convey this better. Also, we will look to add Purdue floral glassware on to the site! If you need any assistance or further options, please feel free to reach out!
