Missing Clothes or Other Items? JME's Lost & Found racks will be in front of the cafeteria entrance April 3-6, Monday-Thursday (the week prior to Spring Break.) We will pull the racks out for pickup at 2 p.m. There's a ton of outerwear in the collection, so please ensure you aren't missing anything!
