Outside University: Comedy and Climbing

---

It�s summertime, which means it�s time to get outside, be healthy and seek some adventures. For this reason, the Boise State University Outdoor Program and Outside Magazine present Outside University at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 14, at the Boise State Campus Recreation Center � The REC. Outside University is a nationwide tour of colleges and universities designed to promote an active, outdoor lifestyle through a multi-media presentation featuring elite climber and humorist, Timmy O�Neill. Representatives from major manufactures and leadership schools will also be on hand and lots of prizes will be given away. This free event is open to the public. O�Neill is one of the fastest climbers in the world. He has set many speed records in Yosemite National Park on several formations. In addition to athletic exploration, O�Neill has become involved in film and public speaking. Known as the �Urban Ape� for his occasional exploits scaling city buildings, O�Neill combines stand up comedy with tales of adventure, leaving audiences motivated to get outside. -30- Contact Geoff Harrison Outdoor Program 208 426-2628 Media Contacts Kathleen Craven communications and marketing 208 426-3275 Angela Jones communications and marketing 208 426-3196
