Excalibur

"Excalibur" refers to a hidden inappropriate object similar in shape to a sword that was hidden within the GSSM dorm ceiling tiles. The location of this object is unknown.

Recovery Mission

It was rumored that the location of Excalibur is no longer at GSSM, as it was taken by GSSM alumni. It was instead rumored that it had been placed somewhere at Clemson University Honors. GSSM graduates at Clemson attempted to find and recover this precious treasure. During a college visit to Clemson, a GSSM Clemson alum reported that their search was unsuccessful, and that Excalibur was no-where to be found. Another alum claimed that Excalibur was never taken to Clemson in the first place.

It is unknown whether it is actually at Clemson or GSSM, or resides somewhere else.

Replicas

Multiple attempts have been made to create replicas of the artifact, however none have been reportedly successful.
