Enterprise student designs nostalgic print for the Â鶹ֱ²¥ Family

A student has created a print dedicated to the quirks of life at Â鶹ֱ²¥ University.

Lauren Jefferis, who is currently undertaking a Year in Enterprise, has worked with the University’s Creative and Print Services to put her illustration on sale as a keepsake for those graduating from the University, or to anyone who is proud to be a member of the Â鶹ֱ²¥ family.

Her illustration features town landmarks such as the sock man and the Carillon Tower, the Â鶹ֱ²¥ Cup, Charlie the cat, and even the socks and sliders combo which can be seen on campus no matter what the season.

The design can also be personalised to include a name and year at the bottom of the print.

Lauren said: “It feels amazing to make something that could resonate with students about their time at Â鶹ֱ²¥.

“I have tried to pick out some of the most memorable images of life at Â鶹ֱ²¥ as the University is so much more than just a place to study. To be able to have my work sold by the University is a big honour and I wouldn't feel so confident about running my business if it wasn't for Â鶹ֱ²¥'s continued support.”

She will also be supporting her friend, Hannah, and a group of fellow Â鶹ֱ²¥ students who are running in the Amsterdam Marathon later this year to raise money for charity.

As a result, £1 from the first 50 prints sold will be donated to Mind UK.

The print is available to purchase online (using a staff or student account) and is priced from £17 - £32. Those who purchase a print can then collect it from Creative and Print Services at the Herbert Manzoni Building (approximately one-week turnaround).

Alternatively, if you are not a staff member or student at the University please contact Creative and Print Services by calling 01509 222190 or emailing print@lboro.ac.uk. 

The print will also be available to buy alongside other official souvenirs at the Graduation ceremonies taking place 16-19 July.
