The Real Hotel Rwanda

PaulRusesabagina(JMayer).jpg Next Monday, in the Texas Union, on UTs campus, Paul Rusesabagina will be speaking. You might have seen Don Cheadle as Mr. Rusesabagina in the Oscar-nominated film, Hotel Rwanda. But this guy is the real thing. The event is free, but you will need to pick up a pass from the Student Events Center Office to gain entry. In order to pick up a pass, you will need a UT ID. (The Austinist heard that they aren't too strict about this and if you're a smooth talker, you could probably get a pass without an ID...just tell them you forgot it.)
So here's the breakdown...
What: Hotel Rwanda's actual Paul Rusesabagina (We love to type that name...so many syllables.)
Where: Texas Union Ballroom, UT campus
When: Monday, 7pm (Get there early to get in line...a pass doesn't garuntee entry.)

This event is being put on by the Student Events Center's Distinguished Speakers Committee.

If anybody from UT could score me a pass or two, I'll gladly repay you in beer or chocolate or something.
