Sorry but you are ignorant in this. They do not have to sue every company that uses an apple in their logo. There are thousands of companies that use this. They are not required to fight companies that do not violated their ability to maintain their brand.
FYI Apples have been used on learning institutions for many decades.
If your logic applies then this company should be suing any company using squares or the color green http://www.hrblock.ca/ see the little r with a circle? Ya registered trademark.

They are REQUIRED to sue over logos that are close to theirs. If they do not, they lose the ability to defend their trademarks in the future. In that case, the leader of that school all of admitted they chose it for its closeness to apple, and has made zero claims to the contrary.
As for your example: you can bet your ass that if another company came out with a logo with a bright green square they would be all over it.
