The U Crew members also post on social media about their favorite items and review merchandise. Students apply and go through an interview process to be selected for The U Crew, and members represent various majors and interests. "The U is not just the official UM spirit store, but it was also created to serve the UM family and remind, inspire and reflect the values of the University of Mobile. Student representatives on The U Crew do that as well," said Lesa Moore, vice president for marketing and public relations. Karlie Welch, a freshman majoring in communication, said being on The U Crew lets her use her creativity and attention to detail. "I've always had an eye for marketing and designing, which is why I changed my major to it," Welch said. Josh Naqvi, a freshman majoring in English, said being on The U Crew is "a fun and practical way to get involved at UM. I enjoy seeing the products at The U and would love to write about them. As an English major, writing is second nature to me."
