Ringtones define a relationship.  What you designate as the official fanfare of an incoming call announces the conscious (or unconscious) reflection of your interpersonal connections.

Through some clever sleuth-work, your PLB team has identified, deduced, or simply guessed the ringtones currently employed by faculty members in the department.
