HAPPY HOUR COMEDY
Bernie McGrenahan
Monday, 17 Apr 2006 at 8:00 pm – Great Hall, Memorial Union
Bernie McGrenahan provides thirty minutes of stand up comedy before tackling the number one substance abuse crisis on campuses today. Whether we call it "high risk", excessive, of "binge" drinking, the problem is claiming the lives of students across America, and McGrenahan motivates and inspires students to "be responsible". His stand up comedy warms the crowd. His powerful message to follow includes the alcohol and drug related suicide of his nineteen-year-old brother, and Bernie's six-month incarceration from three DUI convictions.Cosponsored By:
