Anyone who’s directed a show with us in the past is eligable to direct for the mainstage. So if that’s you, send us an email at dramaboard@googlegroups.com. Sweet!

Third-generation iPod Nano in case and with earbud headphones attached found on floor near tables in Science Center Commons. If you think it may be yours, send me an e-mail describing the color of the case and the earbuds, and I’ll determine whether we have a match.

I stored a small flat shipping box clearly labeled Helen Hougen ‘10 in Wharton EF storage at the beginning of summer. It is no longer there. Please return if you took it.

A black Casio calculator watch was left and went missing from the Tarble game room on the night of the 25th. There is a reward for its safe return. Email cfernan1 or call me at (254) 715–8422 and we’ll work something out. You didn’t do anything wrong; I just want the watch back.

I have lost a copy of Don DeLillo’s novel “Americana.” It’s a paperback with (I think) a bookmark in it. I believe said bookmark is from a little bookstore called “Books on the Common” and features a drawing of a little gnome. I’d really been enjoying it (the book, not the bookmark) and I’d like to read the rest! If found, contact Nick Allred via nallred1@swarthmore.edu.

If you think it’s yours, please email me at swinter1 with any identifying information, especially if it relates to what you have your home number saved as. You know who you are.
