Exeter
University is trying a novel way of raising funds by selling old university
signs on eBay.
The
Exeter
University Campus Signs auction, which ends tomorrow, hopes to raise money
for the university's foundation, which supports scholarships, libraries and
student volunteer training schemes.
The sale includes signs from the campus and halls of residence, and alumni
are asked to purchase a piece of their history.
"More than 160 distinctive green signs that previously graced the campus are
going under the hammer," the university said in a statement.
"Bids for the signs have been flooding in over the past few days, so act
quickly if you want to rename your house 'The University of Exeter' or the 'The
Great Hall'."
Bidding has been brisk so far, and some of the main 'Exeter University' signs
have gone for more than £200. Other popular choices are signs for the
University's theatre and the building that houses the student union's
Ram
Bar.
