1968 Nikon FTN in mint condition: What to do with it?

Here’s something I came across at work the other day: a mint condition Nikon F Photomic FTN, donated to the university art department after its original owner passed. Who didn’t want one of these back in the day? Now, it would be hard to give or trade away (and we can’t sell it). So I guess our traditional photography students (who are discovering the darkroom for the first time, along with bell bottoms and other fashions we older folks discarded decades ago) will hopefully find some pleasure threading film through it.

PS: I’m no stranger to film cameras! Back in the mid’70s I had an Argus SLR and before that played with some press and view cameras that were given to me.
