'em in stitches
by Anthony Proviano
Collegian Staff Writer
On Saturday Aug. 30 comedian
.Earl Reed made a one show only
appearence at Behrend for an ex
citing end to the first, week of
school. Earl, an entertainer who
has performed on Saturday night
Live put on a fine show lasting for
about one hour and forty minutes.
Mr. Reed's comedy covered a
broad range of topics. He joked
about everything from his
childhood experiences to his
highschool prom date, and all his
material seemed to keep his au
dience in stitches. Earl also played
an interactive role with his au
dience by spotlighting and joking
with people , to the amusement of
the rest of the crowd. All of Mr.
Reed's material seemed to go over

well and he was regarded as quite
funny by most aftendents. The
show did however contain some
harsh language and most of the
humor was directed toward an
older crowd. But this was no pro
blem for the most part since the
performance was for college
students.
In an after the show interview
Earl said his show comes from all
his own material which is based on
his own experiences and his au
dience. So what makes someone
choose to make people laugh for a
living and how do you get into this
profession? Earl says comedy kind
of bumped into him. He had been
fired from a previous job after an
unsuccessful college career and
decided to give comedy a try. His
first big break mine when he was
offered to open for Jay Leno in
Connecticut. after that Earl did an
act before a Chaka Khan show and
from there on its been all uphill. In
fact , Earl says look for him in
future Cosby Show episodes where
he has the possibility of playing a
college student. Maybe they'll let
me wear a Behrend College sweat
shirt he says jokingly.
Overall Earl Reed put on an ex
cellant performance, and left his
audience laughing.
Jan Thompson—l feel that orien
tation could have been longer. It
was only two days. The Ice Cream
Social was the best! Thank you,
Campus Ministry. The clubs were
not well advertised. There should
be more events in which you can
get to know people better. The
'Comuter Orientations' was very
well done."
Today I saw a sign that read,
"You can't hug children with nuclear arms."
Today a car bomb exploded killing numerous
innocent people outside a cafe.
Today another hostage, an innocent human being
was taken prisoner by an anti-government
organization.
Today I saw a child naked and starving on T.V.
"But T.V. is fake,"
or is it?
Today my pastor said "When a problem is too
much to handle, let God take over ..."
Please God -
Tomorrow

Harold Mortz--My opinion of
Orientation Week was quite
positive. The dance was exciting,
but Joel Miller was another story.
The clubs should have been more
open. They should have called out
to more people and should've been
able to explain more about what
they were all about."
Dee Gross—l feel that the first
day of Orientation provided much
information to the freshman
students as far as rules and regula
tions were concerned. As for the
social aspects, Orientation should
have been a lot longer because
there were a lot of things that
freshmen didn't know. Other than
that, Orientation was 0.k."

Orientation as a whole was very

worthless because it told me things
that I already knew. I found myself
not attending all the meetings
because I kept hearing the same
thing. As for the Ice Cream Social,
I didn't feel that that was very wor
thwhile either. Las Vegas night was
pretty nice because you got to
know each other."
Alison Calderwood--The big
meetings go on too long. I think
they should have smaller meetings
and I also think they shouldn't lec
ture so much aout studying until
maybe after a week of classes. I'm
a commuter, and I think they
should have had things that pertain
to the commuters more because the
commuters are a big part of this
college."
