It will be wonderful to see and listen to a real astronut here in Brandon. This is something that does not happen everyday. Thanks to Brandon University for arranging that.

I saw this on the news today along with a mention that he will be talking to middle school students as well.

Is this just for Brandon students or rural too? If homeschoolers wish to attend, who do they contact? Anyone know?

Congratulations to the organizers, this promises to be a spectacular event. Just went on the website and I would suggest if you're going to want to go you should get tickets now, looking at the seating chart at the WMCA there aren't many seats left - not a huge surprise there. Should be a great Keynote speech.
