I’ve spent the past couple of school years working with the Improv Mafia at Illinois State University, and a more enthusiastic and talented band of ruffians you’ll never meet. They are true to one of the oldest improvisational maxims by making me look good with their work.
The bad part of working with college students is that every spring, you generally lose a batch of them, and you hope that in the fall, you’ll get another group just as talented and enthusiastic. So far, that’s been the case, and I have no reason to think that won’t continue. In the meantime, I wanted to salute this year’s graduating seniors: Omar, Fiona, Kyle, Robert, and Chris. Well done, all!
