| The second annual Comedy Festival in December 2007 gathered students from campuses across the state to compete in stand-up comedy. On the first night, a panel of professional comedians voted Katie Decker of Gloucester Community College the “Funniest Female College Student in NJ,” and Noah Houlihan from Richard Stockton College the “Funniest Male College Student in NJ.” On the final night, a different panel of judges voted Fairleigh Dickinson University-Madison the “Funniest College in NJ,” and FDU’s Gordon Baker-Bone the “Funniest College Student in NJ.” Connected to our ground-breaking comedy curriculum, our comedy festival promotes the skills of stand-up and sketch comedy writing and performing in an intercollegiate setting. |  |

With the support of the University, the program collaborates with students and faculty from all departments to provide extra curricular events, such as panels, post-performance discussions and informative lobby displays, that coincide with productions and enhance the learning experience. |
