C is for Colbert & Cardinals

September of my sophomore year I got the chance to see Stephen Colbert and Cardinal Dolan talk about life, humor, and religion at Fordham's Rose Hill campus. It was a unique chance to see the funny man from the Colbert Report out of character. The Cardinal contributed his usual brand of good-natured humor and a few belly laughs to the conversation. Members of the media weren't allowed into the event: the only people in the auditorium were Fordham students and staff. At the end of the event, Fordham gave both guests gift bags. Stephen Colbert was eager to try on his Fordham tie, which he wore on his show later that week.
