Ray W. Scott Jr., founder of the Bass Anglers Sportsman Society (B.A.S.S.) and the Whitetail Institute of North America, will visit Auburn Wednesday as part of Outdoor U, an event that will focus on all things outdoors, including careers.

Outdoor U will be held on the lawn just east of Jordan-Hare Stadium from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will feature games, exhibits, product displays and information about the great outdoors. Admission is free and open to anyone on campus or in the community.

Scott will speak at 10 a.m. at Ham Wilson Livestock Arena to high school students who will be on campus to attend a career day and to visit Outdoor U. Then, from 11 a.m. to noon, he will be at the Outdoor U site to meet and greet Auburn students, faculty and staff.

Auburn was selected as an Outdoor U site after Outdoor Life magazine picked AU as one of the top 10 schools to attend for outdoor-related degrees.
