A Banksy Spotted On Campus, Chaos Ensues


          Breaking News -- Earlier today, two students spotted a Banksy work outside of the campus dining hall. Its authenticity has been confirmed by Banksy's people as well as a several professors on-campus familiar with his work. 
          As word got out, students rushed to see the work. Several students were injured in the mad scramble, including broken ankles and scraped hands. 
          Students are flocking to the work, taking pictures of it, posing with it and sharing it with the world. There is an ever growing crowd as people from miles away make the trip to see Banksy's newest work. People have set up small devotional stands next to the work to offer flowers, candles and even pieces of their own art to be near the famous work. There will be a candle-light vigil held tonight from 8:00pm to 5:00am. The college's Art Museum has already made plans to cut down the wall and install it permanently in the gallery space. 
          Several students claimed to have seen the notorious Banksy himself. However, they were not sure, citing that "many students on campus have that countercultural struggling artist look going on." At any rate, we are extremely grateful and eternally indebted to Banksy for his contribution to the college's posterity.
