Table View Cells showing blanks - ios

Question

I've got a Table View Cell in .xib. I've got a UILabel and UIImageView in the .xib.
- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath object:(PFObject *)object
{
SchoolsTableViewCell *cell = (SchoolsTableViewCell *) [[[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"SchoolsTableViewCell" owner:self options:nil] lastObject];
NSLog(#"Before: %#", cell.nameLabel.text);
cell.nameLabel.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Name: %#", [object objectForKey:#"name"]];
NSLog(#"After: %#", cell.nameLabel.text);
PFFile *file = [object objectForKey:#"logo"];
[file getDataInBackgroundWithBlock:^(NSData *data, NSError *error)
{
cell.logoImageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];
}];
return cell;
}
As you can see, I have 2 NSLog()s, printing the below:
2015-07-08 20:17:26.739 o [1871:108786] Before: (null)
2015-07-08 20:17:26.740 o [1871:108786] After: Name: SMSAS
That is expected.
However, on my Simulator, I can only see a blank cell with Name:. It should show SMSAS in the label, and load a logo, but it's not happening. I can pass the object to the next View Controller when the cell is tapped, and it can show in that View Controller.
This is my .m for the cell.
#implementation SchoolsTableViewCell
- (void)awakeFromNib
{
[super awakeFromNib];
self.nameLabel = [[UILabel alloc] init];
self.logoImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
[self.contentView addSubview:self.nameLabel];
[self.contentView addSubview:self.logoImageView];
}
- (void)setSelected:(BOOL)selected animated:(BOOL)animated
{
[super setSelected:selected animated:animated];
}
#end
I'm sure it's a simple mistake. Anyone care to open my eyes? Thanks!

Use dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier
static NSString * CellIdentifier = #"SchoolsTableViewCell";
SchoolsTableViewCell *cell = (SchoolsTableViewCell*)[tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
if (cell == nil)
{
NSArray *nib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"SchoolsTableViewCell" owner:self options:nil];
cell = [nib objectAtIndex:0];
}
