Did you know that the official lost and found is located at the Campus Public Safety office in the Stevens Center parking lot? Due to limited storage, we can only keep items five to eight weeks before they are donated to charitable causes, so come promptly to our office to look for your lost items! Left-behind items in Duke and Wheeler usually stay in Wheeler, and most items left behind in the Roberts Center remain in that building.
There are also lost-and-found boxes at the check-in kiosks at Canyon Commons, so check there first if you may have left items in there. The best practice of all is to take a Sharpie and label your items with your name and phone number so we can notify you (especially phone and computer chargers, water bottles, notebooks and books, lunch bags, calculators, earphones and clothing items).

As usual, Plant Services has had a very busy summer. We are still in the process of completing several building and remodeling projects, as well as several smaller projects. As a result, we have accumulated over 700 open work requests. We are working hard to catch up, but we must complete student housing requests first.
Thank you for your patience during this very busy time.
