Twenty-five-year-old Jelani Day was last seen Aug. 24.
His family from Danville and a faculty member reported him missing after he did not show up for class for several days.
Bloomington police said Monday they need tips from the public in their ongoing search.
Day's mother says it's not like him to disappear without telling them his whereabouts.
She says he wants to become a doctor and was attending ISU to get his master's degree in speech pathology.
