Honor Scholarship Weekend...more than just tests

Wabash College is pleased to announce the performance of award-winning stand-up comedian Greg Fitzsimmons during the 113th Honor Scholarship Weekend. Fitzsimmons will perform at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 18th in the Wabash College Chapel.  All prospective students attending Honor Scholarship Weekend and their hosts are invited to attend.

Greg is a regular performer on "The Late Show with David Letterman," "The Tonight Show," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," "The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn," "Jimmy Kimmel Live," and CNN.  He's done comedy specials on Comedy Central and has made over 25 appearances on "The Howard Stern Show."

"We're really excited to bring such a talented comedian to campus for Honor Scholarship Weekend," says Dean of Admissions Steve Klein.  "Our guests will be treated to a full weekend of recreational and social activities, ending with Greg's show on Saturday night."


In 2005 Greg won two Daytime Emmy Awards for writing and producing on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."  He is currently writing for a new HBO sitcom called "Lucky Louie" and has a deal with ABC to develop his own show.

He hosted a Cable Ace Award-winning game show on MTV called "Idiot Savants" and in 2001 the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen awarded him the prestigious "Jury Award for Best Stand-up Comedian."  He has written on the acclaimed comedy shows "Politically Incorrect," "The Man Show," "Cedric the Entertainer Presents," and has written for the Emmy Awards.
