Shiny and expensive-looking, the copper ashtrays will be used by the UCPH administration that resides at City Campus.<\/p>\n<p>According to information released to the University Post, the ashtrays cost DKK 3,200 adding up to a total of DKK 28,800. The investment in ashtrays comes in the midst of a media rage against taxpayer-paid smoking booths for Danish politicians at the Danish parliament.<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbThe ashtrays were originally designed for the Faculty of Life Sciences a couple of years ago. They match other designs made for the university such as outdoor lamps, garbage cans, and signs. The old ashtrays were clay pots filled with sand,\u00ab project manager and architect at Campus Service, Annette Fischer, tells the University Post.<\/p>\n<h2>Obliged to preserve<\/h2>\n<p>In connection with a previous article on theft of designer furniture from City Campus, the University Post asked readers whether publicly-funded institutions ought to be in possession of large assets of design when taxpayers, as well as staff and students at universities, face cuts. <\/p>\n<p>Read the article <a href=\"node\/12366\/\" target=\"blank\">Fancy designer furniture stolen from uni<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Half of the readers ticked the option in this poll saying that expensive furniture belonging to the university should be auctioned away and the funds used to pay for teaching and staff instead.<\/p>\n<p>This withstanding, Erwin Koster Kristensen, the manager of Campus Service City, explains to the University Post that the University of Copenhagen also has an obligation to its heritage: \u00bbInventory may be expensive to buy, but we are obliged to preserve these old buildings of City Campus in a decent manner. The inventory we replace or install both inside and outside the buildings should be timeless and of a good quality\u00ab. <\/p>\n<h2>Not yet CBS<\/h2>\n<p>The funding to buy the expensive ashtrays comes from a specific account called \u2018FA bruger\u00f8nsker\u2019 \u2013 roughly translated as the UCPH\u2019s administration\u2019s user wishes. According to Annette Fischer, this account has approximately DKK 1.5 million to spend every year. <\/p>\n<p>\u2018FA bruger\u00f8nsker\u2019 does not include maintenance or renovation of buildings at City Campus. Expenses for this is covered in another budget. According to manager Erwin Koster Kristensen the money is set aside for smaller replacements that accumulate each year. \u00bbAfter all, KU is still not CBS,\u00ab he jokes. <\/p>\n<p>CBS (Copenhagen Business School) is widely perceived to be extravagant and &#8216;well-designed&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Project manager and architect at Campus Service, Annette Fischer concludes: \u00bbIf the ashtrays are to be set up at other places at the University of Copenhagen we definitely need them at a cheaper price\u00ab.  <\/p>\n<p>anna.m.gaonkar@adm.ku.dk<\/p>\n<p><em>Stay in the know about news and events
