A university was worried this woman’s dress revealed too much flesh so it did this
PhD student Joan Passey recalled today how she once appeared in a University of Exeter prospectus, but not exactly in the clothes she was wearing.
Just a reminder that it’s five years since the University of Exeter prospectus team censored my boobs. pic.twitter.com/2EPWRi41Fp

Here’s how she looked (in real life) …

Spot the difference?
Fascinated by the discussion that will have preceded somebody doing this.

Amazing! Someone, somewhere has sat down and thought “she’ll catch her death in that”…

However …
That’s how it went into a different prospectus and how it was on the website. And why it was so weird that one was photoshopped and one wasn’t!
