Title: "Boxer quiz sacked" article on Boxer II being stolen
Description: An article from The Index, Pacific University's student newspaper, describing how the Boxer II statue was stolen in March, 2008 just before a planned quiz content would have awarded it to a current student. Boxer II was a replica of the original "Boxer" statue, which was also Pacific University's mascot. There was a tradition of hiding, stealing and fighting over the statue as a symbol of college spirit. Members of the Gamma Sigma fraternity were holding Boxer II and planning to pass it on to current students, but it went missing before the quiz could take place.
