Amid deafening laughter and applause, “The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart performed to a capacity crowd as the 16th guest in the Sacerdote Series, Great Names at 麻豆国产AV, on Nov. 14. Stewart showed he had done his homework on 麻豆国产AV, making reference to such topics as the 麻豆国产AV-Colgate rivalry and the Spectator.

Every topic was fair game for the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning Comedy Central comedian. Stewart poked fun at 麻豆国产AV's campus, asking "Is this campus supposed to look like the set of a murder mystery?" Rural Central New York was a target, when he commented that on his ride to Clinton, "I didn't see much I couldn't milk."

Stewart took great delight in Al Ham the pig. After joking about the Continental as a mascot, Al Ham made an appearance in the crowd. "I'm assuming this is a something from a local supermarket,?" Stewart asked, adding that a "pig in a tri-cornered hat seems to indicate an identity crisis."

Stewart commented on George Bush, describing his press conferences as "as a sixth grader giving a book report on a book he hasn't read." His other material came at the expense of Dick Cheney, the Boy Scouts, homophobes and Sarah Palin.

Since arriving in 1999, Stewart and "The Daily Show" have received 24 Emmy® Award nominations and won 10 times. These include winning for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program as well as Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series for the past five consecutive years (2003-2007). In 2001, "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" also received the prestigious Peabody® Award for excellence in its "Indecision 2000" campaign coverage and again in 2005 for "Indecision 2004."

Lisa Magnarelli, director of student activities and coordinator of Great Names, said Stewart has been atop the Great Names wish list for three years. Two surveys of the campus population both indicated Stewart as the overwhelming choice of who students, faculty and staff most wanted to see.
