Dear Readers,

We have temporarily taken down Maroon Marketplace, a classified advertisements website launched by the Chicago Maroon in 2018. The site is facing maintenance issues not easily resolvable in the short term. These issues have opened up the site to scammers. We are taking the site offline while we assess alternative ways to provide Marketplace’s valuable service to the UChicago community. If you have questions about this decision, you can contact editor@chicagomaroon.com for more information.

Thank you,

Tiffany Li, Editor-in-Chief
Elena Eisenstadt, Deputy Editor-in-Chief
