You're Invited!
Alumni Weekend 2012: Beverly Gail Barnes Kelch Lecture Series Presents: An Evening With Dewey Bozella

Thursday, April 19

5:30PM-6:30 PM

Ritter Hall, Walk Auditorium
1301 Cecil B. Moore Ave.
Philadelphia, PA 19122

Join the College of Health Professions and School of Social Work with the College of Education for an intimate conversation with 2011 Arthur Ashe Courage Award winner, Dewey Bozella. In 1983, Bozella's life took a dramatic turn when he was convicted of a murder he did not commit. Sentenced to 20 years to life in Sing Sing prison, Bozella maintained his innocence and exhausted every appeal.

Bozella candidly discusses his tragic story of injustice and the perseverance, courage and faith that led to his long overdue exoneration after 26 years of wrongful imprisonment. His inspiring story has now been chronicled in the ESPN documentary 26 Years: The Dewey Bozella Story, which premiered in March 2012.
