UPCOMING ALUMNI, UNIVERSITY & COMMUNITY EVENTS...

February 24, 2012

APSU Alumnus, Dr. Bob Patton Book Signing 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m.

Pace Alumni Center at Emerald Hill

APSU Alumnus, Dr. Robert “Bob” Patton (’57, ’59), will be on campus at the Pace Alumni Center at Emerald Hill for a book signing on Friday, Feb. 24, 2012. Join us from 11:30-1 p.m. Books will be available for purchase ($17.50 apiece) and refreshments will be provided.

Tennessee Political Fireworks is a collection of political stories by Robert D. “Bob” Patton. The stories are a result of Bob’s decades in local and state politics and preserve some of the history as well as human interest.

 Included stories reveal how politics works, sometimes with a little “arm-twisting” to get the desired result. While some are humorous or thought provoking and philosophical, others will spark interest to almost anyone with a desire to learn more about the real world of politics.

Dr. Patton served as a County Commissioner, Election Official, State Representative, part-time employee for the Secretary of State and is still employed as a Sargent-at-Arms in the Tennessee House.

For more information, contact the Alumni Relations Office at 931-221-7979.
