around modifies adverb or noun?



The signs that were being posted around campus support abortion rights.

around is adverb .
campus is a noun .
is around modifies for posted ?
in that case , what's function for campus.

Thanks

Re: around modifies adverb or noun?

"Around" = preposition. "Around campus" modifies "posted".
"Campus" = noun. Function is object of preposition "around".
