IUSB prof. invited to watch, tweet State of the Union

An IU South Bend professor is packing his bags to get ready to head to Washington D.C. for the president's upcoming State of the Union address on Tuesday.?

Alec Hosterman, who teaches Communication Studies, has been invited to the White House?to watch the President Obama's speech from the Eisenhower building and then to use social media to comment on it.?

When Hosterman applied he said he never dreamed he would actually be chosen.

?I got the invite and I know how lottery winners feel,? he said ??I was aghast. I vetted it thinking it was fake, but it was real.?

We'll be following Hosterman Tuesday as he tweets and posts on Facebook about the State of the Union. And, of course, you can watch the president?s speech live on WSBT.com and WSBT-TV Tuesday night at 9 p.m. EDT.?
