The Center for Intellectual Freedom got a new director yesterday…

…and there is a table, staffed by what appear to be students, on the Cleary walkway as of a few minutes ago.

First time I’ve seen any student involvement with the Center whatsoever. That sure happened fast.

Touch of Mink Stories / History - Exotic Dancing Parlor

33 Upvotes

This morning I learned the existence of Touch of Mink and my mind is blown. As a life long IC resident I had no idea this place was ever a thing. Evidently there was ventriloquist exotic dancing?!?! I'd love nothing more than to hear stories from those that worked there or were customers. What were the vibes like? Tell me everything

There is a small lot between the Phillips 66 and Dollar Tree near Menards. It looks like they have started pouring a foundation. Does anyone know what is going there?

Lost and Found Lost Wedding Ring

8 Upvotes

Not mine, just sharing from Nextdoor

I'm not sure if just anyone can open the link and see the post, so here's the details:

OOP is asking for help finding his mom's lost wedding ring. She says she may have lost it at Costco or Fareway in North Liberty. People are checking those stores, local pawn shops, etc. He's said that they've checked the Police Department, and someone says they saw a post where someone found it... But never got back on where said post was...

There's also a second post with more comments.

Attaching an image of said ring.

Looking for nail tech recommendations

Hi! I’m moving to Iowa City next month and I’m looking for any recommendations for a nail tech! I usually get gel with a design and a pedicure periodically. I’ve only ever gone to salon/spas but I’m open to independent techniques as well.
