It's Linsanity with PA3 & A4P
Friday, October 11
7PM and 9PM Shows
Princeton Garden Theater, Nassau Street, Princeton

The Princeton Area Alumni Association (PA3) in association with the Asian American Alumni Association of Princeton (A4P) proudly sponsor the New Jersey opening of the country’s hottest documentary, “Linsanity.” Even the most casual basketball fan knows the story of Jeremy Lin’s explosion into our consciousness as he and his New York Knick teammates created one dramatic win after another last year in a season that seemed to be going nowhere.

Join us for what may be the only two showings of Linsanity in New Jersey on Friday, October 11th @ 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm.

Tickets must be purchased in advance via this web page. Students purchasing discounted tickets must show a valid student ID when picking your tickets up at will call on the evening of the 11th. We hope to see you there!

Tickets are

$15.00 General Admission

$7.50 for Students and Dues Paying PA3 members

TICKETS MUST NOW BE PURCHASED AT THE BOX OFFICE ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED BASIS. Approximately 60% of the tickets were sold via the pre-sale.

On Thursday evening, November 7, 2013 beginning at 7:30 pm, PA3 will host an exclusive "informal conversation" with author and long-time Princeton professor Joyce Carol Oates on her most recent novel, The Accursed, which is set in, and largely about, Princeton during the years 1905-1906. The book is based on remarkable research about a famous era, when Woodrow Wilson, Grover Cleveland, Upton Sinclair Louis Armour, and other notables lived and interacted in town and on campus.

The event will be held at the Princeton home of Andrew (’66) and Anya (’73) Littauer, who have kindly agreed to host. Because this is a private home, space is limited and participation must be restricted to 20 PA3 members. We expect this event to be oversubscribed.

Registration is necessary and will close on Friday, October 18. If we have more registrants than 20, remaining spaces will be allocated by lottery, with priority for dues-paying members.

Reading the book in advance of the event is essential and participants are expected to arrive at the venue by 7:20 pm. Professor Oates will not give a formal lecture; the event will be more in the nature of a precept.

For registration, contact George L. Bustin ’70 at bustin@princeton.edu
