Access Energy Cooperative would like to alert the public to scam telephone calls that are occurring. Access Energy has received reports that community members have been receiving telemarketing calls self-identifying as “the utility” and requesting over the phone payment before utilities are shut off. Access Energy would like to make the public aware of these scams and inform the public that utility companies, including Access Energy and the Mount Pleasant Municipal Utilities, will not call you and ask for your information. If you receive a call alerting you to pay over the phone before your utilities are shut off, please decline to respond, and remember to never give personal information over the telephone.

College Sports: Dubuque First D3 School to Offer NIL
Dubuque — University of Dubuque president Jeffrey Bullock says a Name-Image-Likeness program created by the athletic department is designed to provide athletes compliance and opportunity.
The Spartans have paired with a company called INFCLR (influencer) to become the first Division III school in the country to offer an N-I-L exchange.
Bullock says it will provide opportunities for athletes that are normally available for more high profile division one athletes.
The NIL era has become a Wild West of sorts, without much regulation from the NCAA.
Some college players have received seven figure NIL deals to leave their school and transfer to a different program.
College Basketball: Cyclones Add Transfer from St. Bonaventure
Ames — Iowa State head men’s basketball coach T.J. Otzelberger has announced the addition of St. Bonaventure transfer Jaren Holmes. Holmes is a 6-4 guard out of Romulus, Michigan.
Holmes started all 33 games for the Bonnies during the 2021-22 season. He was second on the team with 13.5 points as he helped lead the Bonnies to the NIT Semifinals.
Holmes will try to bridge the gap left behind by Tyrese Hunter, who was the Big 12 Freshman of the Year.
Hunter, who announced his transfer in early April, is picking between Tennessee, Kansas, Louisville, Gonzaga, Texas and Purdue.
