Incident Description: 
My bike was parked at the Brain research entrance of the University of Chicago Medical Center, with a master lock chain lock going through the front tire and connected to the seat. The lock must have been cut, and the bike was stolen from that location between when I parked it there at 0700 and when I came out to go home at around 8pm. It basically was a stock bike... no other upgrades or distinguishing features. Can't find where I wrote down the serial number. There aren't many bikes like this one...
