From the Las Vegas Review Journal we learn that "Two of the most famous and flamboyant acts ever to grace the Las Vegas Strip -- magicians Siegfried and Roy and pianist Liberace -- will be inducted into the University of Nevada, Las Vegas' Hall of Fame on Friday. The 6:30 p.m. ceremony at Artemus Ham Hall on campus, 4505 S. Maryland Parkway, will be open and free to the public."

"Choosing Siegfried and Roy was a no-brainer," says Jeff Koep, dean of the college of fine arts. "They helped put the modern Vegas on the map," Koep says. "They're excellent illusionists and there are very few people in the world who don't know who they are."
