Students wishing to see President Barack Obama speak at Iowa State on Tuesday, Aug. 28, may pick up tickets starting Saturday at noon at the Memorial Union and the Organizing For America office at 413 Northwestern Ave., said the Obama Campaign’s Ames field organizer, Romen Borsellino, at the ISU College Democrats’ meeting Thursday night.

Details as to the exact time and place of the president’s visit to Iowa State have yet to be released, but it is expected that the president will speak sometime between mid and late morning on Tuesday.

Obama is coming to Ames as part of a two-day tour of college towns throughout the country. He will also visit the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Va. and Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colo.
