City of York Council says the statue of Long Boi will add to the character of the university campus.
My campus had a hawk flying around (he's still there I think) named Xerxes. He's also popular and I miss him since moving away.
A report from the council said the statue would “commemorate a well-loved resident”, adding there were no objections from Heslington Parish Council or the Yorkshire Gardens Trust.
Honestly how often do you hear this, everyone just on board with a silly but but heartfelt statue. RIP Long Boi.
