News of another proposed merger has reached The Diary. The University of Bums on Seats - formerly Peckham Polytechnic - is considering whether to join forces with the Peckham Adult Network for Teaching and Schooling. According to the university's website, the proposed merger would produce the largest educational organisation in the whole of Peckham. It would coincide with the proposed rebranding of the university.
As part of the rebranding, vice-chancellor Alan Dubious has invited suggestions for a new logo, name and image for UBS. His ideas include: Peckham Metropolitan University; the University of Metropolitan Peckham; and Oxford University.
