Lost desk organizers near Cook Library.

I’m Emma Bennett. I was rushing to pull together notes for an 8 a.m. class when I stopped outside Cook Library on the University of Southern Mississippi campus around 7:15 p.m. Tuesday and realized my desk organizers were missing from my tote. They’re two small, gray plastic trays with a couple of labeled compartments, plus a zippered pouch that held highlighters, a USB drive with recent notes, and a stray sticky note with a doodle of a coffee cup. Losing them felt personal, like I’d misplaced a part of my study routine right before finals. I remember the library steps glowing under the streetlight and the hum of the campus quad, and then they were gone. If you saw them, I’d be grateful to have them back.

Lost document holders near USM campus

I am Cameron Reed. I lost my document holders yesterday afternoon around 4:30 PM near the USM campus in Hattiesburg. I was walking from the library toward the student union when a gust of wind snatched the sleeves from my bag and carried them into the crowd. Inside are my important IDs and a few receipts I will need for tomorrow's appointment, so I am anxious to have them back. If you found them, I would be grateful for their return near the campus entrance.

FOUND Dresses near USM campus on Hardy Street

Saturday around 3:20 p.m., I found a bundle of dresses outside the University of Southern Mississippi entrance on Hardy Street in Hattiesburg. They’re a mix of gowns and sundresses in navy, blush, and black, neatly folded in a garment bag. I felt a rush of relief thinking of someone missing these and hoped the owner would see this post. I left them securely with the campus security desk to keep them safe until the rightful owner is found.

Found Belts near Saenger Theatre

Hey, I’m Avery Johnson. Around 9:00 p.m. today I found Belts on the sidewalk outside the Saenger Theatre, downtown Hattiesburg. The belts are two different styles—one brown leather with a brass buckle and a worn black fabric belt—so I kept them together in a small tote by my apartment. I know someone out there is missing them after a night out, so I hope the owner recognizes this post and claims them here. I’ll make sure they stay safe and undamaged until they’re reunited.

Lost CDs in Hattiesburg, MS

I lost my CDs last night around 7:15 PM after studying at the University of Southern Mississippi campus. I had them in a black wallet tucked into my backpack, a mixed batch of classic rock and indie with a few scratched cases. I think I left them somewhere in the USM library courtyard, near the glass doors that overlook the quad, on my way to the campus coffee shop. I’ve retraced my steps and asked the front desk, but nothing turned up yet. It’s frustrating because those discs carry memories of recent road trips and late study sessions.

Found drones in Hattiesburg, MS

Last Friday around 7:15 PM, I found two drones behind the University of Southern Mississippi campus, near the parking lot off Hardy Street. They were in a black carry case with a spare propeller tucked beside the controllers, the screens catching the streetlights. The air smelled of rain-soaked grass from the late evening, and distant traffic hummed along US-49. I am posting here in case the owners recognize them and can reclaim them through the site.
