Question: Can you write a story surrounding a college without permission!?
I want to write a mystery/suspense story about a murder on a college campus and I want to base it at UNC but do I have to have permission from the University to do that!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
No, you don't need permission!. Just put a statement at the beginning of the book saying that UNC is real but the story, characters and certain places in it (like a campus hangout) are fictional!.

You might have to, you probably want to, especially if you're going to publish it, because or else the college might sue you for using them w/o permissionWww@QuestionHome@Com
