Student leaders plan open forum for talks of theater acquisition

— Daily Staff

Student leaders will hold an open forum to discuss the possible acquisition of the Varsity Theater, 2412 Lincoln Way. The forum will be held at 8 p.m. Nov. 3 in the Cardinal Room of the Memorial Union.

The Campustown Student Association has proposed the university buy the theater and re-purpose it into a student life center. The Government of the Student Body appointed a task force to study the issue. Task force members continue to refine the proposal and are currently seeking cost estimates for specific portions of the project.

Anyone with questions about the proposal or interest in the project is invited to attend the open forum
