On Tuesday at 4:15 pm, I was walking across the Iowa State University campus near the Memorial Union when I realized my travel visas weren’t in my folder. They were tucked into a slim leather document holder along with my passport photos and flight itinerary. I’m anxious because I’m due to fly soon and every minute counts. I hope whoever finds them understands how important these documents are.
Small brown purse (Brand: Coach). Contains currency. No name or identification included. Found near North Grand Mall 9/10/26.
Today around 4:10 p.m., I found a small set of utensils on a bench near the Campanile on the ISU campus. They were wrapped in a napkin, like someone had grabbed a quick bite between classes and forgotten them. I checked around for a moment but didn’t see anyone looking for them, so I kept them safe on the bench until the area cleared. It felt good to return something that probably belongs to a fellow student or staff member.
Last Sunday around 7:45 PM, I was packing up after rehearsal at the Ames High School auditorium and realized my xylophones were missing somewhere along Douglas Avenue near the Ames Public Library's east entrance. I retraced my steps along the sidewalk by the library, but they were nowhere to be found. It’s a small student set, bright red mallets attached with a yellow cord, and it means a lot to me to have them back for practice. If you see them, please know they’re important and I’d be grateful to get them back.
I was heading back to the dorm from the ISU library in Campustown around 7:15 pm when I realized my chargers were missing. I carry two USB-C fast chargers and a spare USB-A brick in a small gray pouch. I must have set them down at a study table near the campus bookstore before heading to my apartment. These chargers are essential for late-night study sessions, and I’m anxious about not having them help me stay on schedule. I filed this listing in the hope someone honest found them and will return them to the campus lost-and-found or to the site.
Hi, I'm Emma Larson. I lost my two felines last night around 9:15 pm near the ISU campus, specifically around Welch Avenue. They slipped out the door while I was bringing in groceries and haven't come back. The tabby has a white chest patch, and the calico is mostly orange and white; both are friendly but skittish. I’m anxious and worried—these two are my family. I've looked around the apartments off Welch, checked the student housing courtyards, and posted notices, but no sign yet. If you happen to see two small cats wandering the Welch Avenue area, please keep an eye out and let me know through the site.
