Turk to consider student feedback in theater decision
A reward of $10,000 is being offered by missing ISU student Jon Lacina’s parents for any information leading to the location of Lacina, who has not been seen since Jan. 22. According to the ISU News Service, Tom and Alesia Lacina announced the reward Thursday. The sum of $10,000 could be paid to Lacina one person or divided among several people who provide leads that lead to Lacina’s location. The reward will only be given for information not available to the public, and no reward may be given to any law enforcement officer. Donations can be made to the reward fund that has been set up in accounts at Grinnell State Bank and Patriot Bank in Grinnell. If the reward is not helpful in locating Lacina, the accounts will be closed. Funds not used to pay the reward will be given to charities that support the arts. For more information on the reward, see www.news.iastate. edu/news/2010/feb/rewarddetails.

In an e-mail sent on Sunday, Jon Turk, president of the Government of the Student Body, said he is still contemplating his decision on what to do with the Varsity Theater bill passed by the GSB Senate 28-2-0 in Wednesday’s meeting. Turk can sign the bill, not sign the bill and Turk wait six days, which would still allow the bill to become law, or veto the bill. If Turk chooses to veto the bill, the GSB Senate can override the veto with a two-thirds vote. In the e-mail, Turk said he would probably make his decision late Monday. “I am still receiving feedback from students on campus,” Turk wrote. If signed and approved by the Board of Regents, the bill would allocate approximately $400,000 of GSB money from the capital projects and investment accounts to the creation of a studentfocused “Cyclone Cinema” in the home of the former Varsity Theater, 2412 Lincoln Way. The funds would support renovations and first-year expenses.
