BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The address by former President William J. Clinton at the University at Buffalo on April 10 will be broadcast live at 3 p.m. by WBFO 88.7 FM, the National Public Radio affiliate operated by the University at Buffalo.

Clinton's speech in Alumni Arena on UB's North (Amherst) Campus originally was scheduled for 4 p.m., but has been moved up one hour to accommodate his calendar. Tickets printed with the 4 p.m. time still will be valid.

Clinton, who has waived his honorarium for the speech, was invited to speak by UB and its undergraduate Student Association, which is sponsoring his appearance.

The 42nd president of the United States will be speaking to a student audience since UB students, who were offered the 7,000 free tickets available on a first-come basis, picked up all tickets within two days of their being made available on March 6. No tickets remained for UB faculty and staff or for the public.

Doors will be open to those holding tickets at 1:30 p.m.

All individuals attending the speech will be subject to search and will not be allowed to bring backpacks, large purses or other large containers into Alumni Arena.
