REPRESENT YOUR COLLEGE
If you are a current student, staff member or alumni, we are for the first time offering the chance to represent your College! Whilst we can no longer offer representation of your College/School on your #TeamUoB t-shirt, you can still have your time contribute to your College’s total in our brand new UoB Inter-College competition.
