U of KY by chance? If so, I'd contact the Office of Sustainability, which runs the Wildcat Wheels bike library (part co-op, part rental fleet).

If not UKY, contact the Campus Police/Security. They usually know where the unclaimed/abandoned bikes are at and some schools run auctions on these from time to time.
