The Studio 85, LLC | Culture. Heritage. Legacy.
More than a university tee. A tribute to the Hill, the history that shaped us, and the legacy that continues to inspire generations.
The VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY | ON THE HILL HERITAGE TEE celebrates the enduring spirit of Virginia State University, honoring an institution whose history is deeply rooted in Black excellence, educational opportunity, and the pursuit of purpose since 1882.
For generations of Trojans, the Hill has represented more than a place of learning. It is where traditions are established, lifelong friendships are formed, and a shared sense of identity becomes part of a lasting legacy. From the historic beauty of Virginia Hall to the familiar landscapes of Ettrick and Petersburg, every corner holds a story worth preserving.
Featuring a vintage-inspired illustration of Virginia Hall framed by autumn foliage, historic architectural details, and a warm sunset, this statement piece captures the timeless beauty of Virginia State University. A minimalist collegiate emblem on the front complements the richly illustrated back, blending understated design with nostalgic campus artistry.
The inscription "ON THE HILL — TRADITION. PEOPLE. PURPOSE. FOREVER." serves as a reminder that while generations may come and go, the spirit of Virginia State remains.
Established in 1882. Rooted in excellence. Forever on the Hill.
