Props: The book Drexel University
Off the Record is the
unauthorized guide for
prospective students. On page
123 is its list of the “Ten Best
Things About Drexel.” Number 9
is: “Scott Stein’s Humor &
Comedy Writing class.” Now
that’s some humor writing.
I had the honor of being beaten
out by “Cheap Basketball
Tickets” and “Wireless
Internet.” The book is in the
Drexel bookstore (I mention this for informational and
blatant self-promotional purposes
only, and am not trying to sell
their book.)
