Give Butt B Back the World

Some jerk stole the large framed "What's Up? South!" map off the wall outside the offices by the Butterfield B bridge over the weekend. What would a klepto-vandal even do with this thing? It's been up there for years doing the humble service of reorienting the spatial perception of passersby, and now it's going to be stuck in someone's bedroom?

Apparently the map is also part of an important tradition for international students in which each new student puts a sticker indicating where they're from on the map during orientation, and the last time I saw it the map was riddled with them.

If you've got any info about its whereabouts, email the Butterfields Area Coordinator at smbrown@wesleyan.edu (especially if you live in Butt B, since you might end up getting billed for its replacement if it's not found).

"Stuck in someone's bedroom"... does that mean it would be nerdy to admit I already own one?

it's cool if you OWN one, not if you stole one from a place where other people enjoyed it on a regular basis. like I did!

also, it's sort of important for international students at wes. during ISO, each country rep puts a sticker indicating where they're from on that map.

Huh, so that's what all the stickers were. This makes the thief even more of a jerk.
