25 Famous People You Didn’t Know Graduated From Binghamton University

People sometimes think of Binghamton University as a place where students go to prepare for careers in business, science, law, and other demanding fields. That is certainly part of its reputation. Yet the university has also educated actors, comedians, musicians, writers, television personalities, political leaders, and people who helped build major American companies. Some of those names are so familiar that their connection to this SUNY campus in New York’s Southern Tier comes as a surprise.

Grateful Dead Close out Fall Tour in Binghamton: November 6, 1977

Whenever a Grateful Dead discussion ensues, the year 1977 generally soon follows. And for good reason. Many argue it’s the best, or at least their preferred, era of the band’s music, pointing to such epic shows in New York like ones earlier this year at Cornell on May 8 and the next day’s show in Buffalo. But thankfully The Grateful Dead was not quite done with the state just yet as they decided to end their 1977 Fall Tour in Binghamton. Their first appearance at Broome County Arena on November 6 would mark the final show on the East Coast for this most holy of years, closing out one of the most revered chapters in the band’s history.

12 Small Pennsylvania Towns Where Neighbors Still Look Out For One Another

In 1856, a local woman hurried to the scene of a terrible train crash near her Pennsylvania home. She spent hours caring for the injured, and people never forgot what she did. A railroad later named its station after her. Then the whole town took her name too. I love that a community chose to honor kindness instead of a general or a rich landowner.

This Pennsylvania Cathedral Could Quite Easily Pass for a Church in Medieval Europe

A chest beneath one altar holds 84 relics of saints and martyrs, including Saint Patrick. That detail alone made me stop scrolling. Construction began in 1875, and the cathedral was dedicated in 1893. The bishop behind it refused to build unless the money was already in hand, so the walls rose slowly, stone by red stone.

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Pulpit: Local Pastor Emerges as Stand-Up Comedian

He’s a rarity, that’s for sure. A guy who’s equally at ease while preaching from the Bible in a church or delivering a punch line at a comedy club. That’s right, State College’s Jonathan Weibel is both an ordained pastor and a professional stand-up comedian. Appropriately enough, he jokes about his curious combination of professions. “I fly a lot,” says the clergy comic, “and one of the first things someone says to you on a plane is, ‘What do you do for a living?’ If I want to talk to them, I tell them I’m a stand-up comedian. And if I’m tired and don’t want to talk to them, I’ll tell them I’m a Baptist evangelist.” Weibel has served in Christian ministry for nearly 40 years. The last 30 years have been spent in the Centre Region, where he’s planted three new churches and served as lead pastor, worship pastor or youth pastor at State College Alliance Church, Penns Valley Community Church and Centre Church. He first got my attention in work that was unrelated to stand-up: serving as the director of Front Yard Mission , a movement designed to bring genuine Christian love to neighborhoods. But then I heard
