Calling all UP students: Laugh it UP

April 19, 2018

The Beckman Humor Project is teaming up with Pilots After Dark and ActiveMinds to bring you a humor-filled competition night during Stress-Less Week containing jokes, bingo, and AMAZING PRIZES! Compile a team of 2-4 people from your dorm* and compete against other dorms with your best jokes. There’s only one rule — you can’t laugh! We want to see all the dorms represented!

Laugh It UP: Battle of the Dorms
Saturday, April 28, 2018
10-11:30pm in the Pilot House
Free and open to all UP students

*Event is also open to students who may live off-campus and multiple teams can sign up from each dorm.

John and Patricia Beckman had an audacious idea: harness the power of humor to transform the world! And let’s tap into the capacious imaginations and talents of the University of Portland to treat humor as “a communal energy, a creative way to puncture arrogance and outwit violence.”

And so the Beckman Humor Project was born, a living force. What can it offer our bruised, blessed world?

Speakers, concerts, exhibitions, performances, graphic novels, stand-up, research… if it can be imagined, if it can scrape a bit of crud off the world by making someone laugh, it can find a home in the Beckman Humor Project.
