On Sunday, Feb 11, one of the LED spotlights was stolen from the Lakeland pub. There was a party in the pub on the previous night and the light was there at the time.
"On Monday, we realized the light was gone," said Talia Proffitt, director of student activities. The light was taken some time Sunday or early Monday morning.
The light was fairly new. According to Proffitt, the system was installed during Homecoming week in Oct. 2006.
The lighting system was complete with two Led spotlights and to stage lights. It cost the Student Association (SA) and Lakeland College-Campus activities Board about $3,000 to install the system.
Not only was the light stolen, but the controls for the system located in the box next to the stage were also torn off.
"The light alone was worth around $800," Proffitt said.
The Sheboygan County Sheriffs Department has been investigating the theft since it was reported on Wednesday, Feb. 14
Lakeland security is also searching for the light. "Seventy-five dollars will be paid as a reward to anyone who gives us legitimate information about the theft," said Proffitt.
If you know any information that will help return the light to the pub, you are encouraged to drop by Proffitt's office, Laun 100, call her at x 1235 or send an e-mail to proffittt@lakeland.edu.
