More sad, disappointing news:
The WIU Foundation is offering a $500 reward to the individual who comes forward with information that leads to the arrest of the individual(s) responsible for vandalizing the Western sign in front of the WIU Alumni House.
During the early morning hours, someone removed the letter "W" from the sign.
Information about crimes can be reported to the Office of Public Safety at (309) 298-1949 or to the Macomb Area Crime Stoppers at (309) 836-3222.
Anonymous tips can also be submitted online or by texting CRIMESTOP and the tip to CRIMES (274637).
More Alumni House Vandalism

****ing ridiculous. What a world we live in. Rather than have it happen again, I would change the design and have the letters emblazoned in stone or concrete as part of the wall and then light up the wall. The "lit up" individual letters are too inviting from some idiot who is also "lit up" on his way back from the pubs. If they are going to steal letters, make them lift something very heavy.
Embrace the pace of the race.

Or make them electrified. I know with some of our cattle electric fences, they'd literally knock you on your butt.sealhall74 wrote:If they are going to steal letters, make them lift something very heavy.
