<p>A university has banned a saucy poster showing half-naked students over &#8220;sensitivity issues&#8221;.</p>
<p>The poster was shot for fashion students at Southampton Solent University and put on sale to make money for their final year show.</p>
<p>The 14 women, aged 21 to 25, posed in the main picture with only strips of wool or material to cover their modesty.</p>
<p>The poster was put up in a main public area but sparked complaints from staff and it was subsequently removed.</p>
<p>A university spokesman said: &#8220;The Calendar Girls poster was a final-year student fundraising initiative, organised and funded by the students to raise money towards their end-of-year fashion shows.</p>
<p>&#8220;Following a couple of complaints, the university decided, in the interests of sensitivity, to remove the promotional posters from public view.</p>
<p>&#8220;However, the students are still able to sell their fundraising posters off campus.&#8221;</p>
<p>One of the students who posed for the picture, Vicky Hicks, 22, said the group only wanted to raise £4,000 to help produce the fashion show, which was important for their careers.</p>
<p>&#8220;I really don&#8217;t understand why it was banned in the university,&#8221; she told the Southern Daily Echo.</p>
<p>&#8220;A lot of friends at different colleges and universities have done the same.&#8221;</p>
