Iceman John Scully, the author and former light heavyweight contender now training boxers at the Lions Den in Middletown, will be the guest speaker for a communications class at Gateway Community College in New Haven on Thursday, April 21.
Scully will cap a fierce 1-2 punch that day opened by Norm Pattis, the trial lawyer and author of a book due out later this spring.
Pattis opens the show -- open to the public -- at 9:30 a.m. in Room 201. Scully appears at 11 a.m. in Room 234. For more information, contact Prof. Franz Douskey, (203) 285-2206, fdouskey@gwcc.commnet.edu
Pattis, a columnist for American Lawyer Media, will read from his forthcoming book of essays, TAKING BACK THE COURTS, SUTTON HART PRESS, due out this spring.
My take on this book:
'Pattis demystifies the courts and disrobes the judges who gutted the Bill of Rights. Careful readers are given a map to right some of the wrongs committed in our name.'
Scully, who recently embarked on a career as a motivational speaker, also works as a commentator for venues including ESPN and Showtime. He will be a guest of Professor Susan Chenard.
Scully will speak for about 45 minutes including questions and anwsers. Scully, a prolific writer, has posted excerpts of his manuscript The Iceman Diaries at http://www.icemanjohnscully.com/

ABOUT GATEWAY
What do actor Tom Hanks, poet Gwendolyn Brooks, Space Shuttle Commander Robert Gibson, baseball player Nolan Ryan, and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger all have in common? They all went to a community college.
The Princeton Review has the message right; community colleges produce leaders!

There's a reason why Gateway Community College was listed in the New York Times as the top community college in the state.
