Friday, May 8, 1998
Reporters are invited to meet with former Middle East
hostages Tom Sutherland and Terry Anderson during a special
session prior to their Colorado State University address May 15
at Moby Arena.
Media will have an opportunity to meet with the two men at
9 a.m. May 15 at D.C. Bottoms in the Durrell Center on the
Colorado State campus. After visiting with the media, Sutherland
and Anderson will continue with a reception and book signing open
to the public.
Please RSVP by May 14 at (970) 491-6432 to let us know if
you will attend.
Sutherland is a well-known figure in Colorado, first joining
Colorado State in the department of animal sciences in 1958. For
25 years he was professor of animal science at Colorado State,
where he received many honors as an outstanding teacher.
Sutherland was released from captivity on Nov. 18, 1991. He and
his wife, Jean, wrote the novel, "At Your Own Risk," which
describes their experiences.
Anderson, author of "Den of Lions," is an associate
professor at Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism.
He writes a weekly column syndicated by the King Feature
Syndicate and is a nationally known speaker on political and
social affairs, the Middle East, journalism and government
reform. "Den of Lions," which Anderson wrote with his wife,
Madeleine Bassil, was a national best seller which told the story
of Anderson's seven years in captivity.
For graduation ceremonies, we also will distribute during
the next week a media pass that will provide access to the Moby
Arena and the media reception, and a media parking pass that will
enable you to park in a reserved parking area immediately
adjacent to Moby Arena.
