"Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!"

One of the really cool things about going to Beloit is all the awesome events that come to campus. As Programming Board Director I help do a lot of really cool events, but sometimes something really special comes.


Last night we had the National Public Radio show "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!"


The show featured Emmy Award-winning comedian Paula Poundstone, author Roy Blount Jr. and Boston Globe sportswriter and author Charlie Pierce as panel as well as host Peter Sagal and veteran announcer Carl Kasell.


The college has spent the last three years trying to get the show to come here and it was well worth the wait. The packed house in Eaton Chapel took part in an interactive 2 hour recording, which will air THIS SATURDAY nation-wide on NPR. It is listed to weekly by 3 million people.
