An evening with Charles Bolden, astronaut, NASA administrator, Columbia native

The public is invited to hear guest speaker Maj. Gen. Charles F. Bolden, Jr., former NASA astronaut and administrator, and Columbia native, at the University Libraries Thomas Cooper Society annual dinner.

Bolden recently donated his personal papers and collected items ranging from model rockets and awards, to items he took into space to USC’s South Caroliniana Library. There will be a small but awe-inspiring exhibit of items from Bolden’s collection on display.
