Comedy at Rowan

What It Is: The New Jersey Comedy Festival comes to the Chamberlain Student Center at Rowan University tonight. The festival is actually a statewide competition with college students competing for the title of "King or Queen of Campus Comedy."

What To Expect: The jokes will be flying as the students give their best shots at achieving comedic stardom. Most - if not all - of the contestants are amateurs, so the presentation might be a little rough, but this is a good way to find some free fun and maybe catch a first glimpse of a rising star.

Event Info: The free event begins at 9 tonight in the Chamberlain Student Center Pit, on the college campus located on Route 322 in Glassboro.
