The investigation opens Monday, October 12

The Key must not fall into the wrong hands. If I disappear, follow the clues. The future of WNMU depends on it.

Form a team of exactly 3 people and come back on Monday, October 12. A riddle has already surfaced:

I contain thousands of voices,
yet never speak.
I hold answers sought by every scholar.
Find me.

Escape room: Friday, October 23 · Student Memorial Building 12 days left

This is a game. Professor Reyes is a fictional character.

How to play

Form a team of exactly 3 people, scan the QR code and sign up your team on the map. One phone per team is enough. Your clock starts now.
Read your current lead. It points to a Guardian somewhere on campus — the map won’t mark it.
Turn on location and walk to where you think the clue points. The next location is not marked: when you reach the right place, the map confirms it, marks the spot and shows any hint.
Find the Guardian — a real person — and tell them your team’s codename. They’ll give you your team’s code.
Enter the code on the map. The Guardian is pinned on your map and your next lead opens.
Recover all four, then bring your team to the Student Memorial Building on Friday, October 23.

Teams are exactly 3 people — no more, no less.
Time runs from opening your case to recovering the fourth fragment.
Every team gets its own codes, so codes can’t be shared between teams.
Keep every clue you collect until the end of the game — you’ll need them at the escape room.
No location? Each hint can be requested 15 minutes after a lead opens; it adds 10 minutes to your time.
Prize winners show their case number to staff at the escape room event.
Need an accessible route, or can’t reach a location? Ask at the Tutor Center and staff will help.
