On Monday January 14, in the Superior Room, comedian Mike Kosta entertained students with his one hour comedy routine. It was just what students needed at the beginning of the new spring semester.  This was his first visit to Lake State’s campus.  Kosta, who is originally from Ann Arbor Michigan, has been traveling the country and doing comedy for about 8 years. He currently lives in L.A. When asked why he decided to become a comedian he responded “I always craved attention, so doing comedy just made sense.” Mike originally was working as a tennis coach at U of M after playing for professionally for some time, but then decided that comedy was his passion.  You can see Mike not only doing comedy show on campuses, but also on Comedy Central’s “Live at Gotham” Last Comic Standing, and The CCHA All Access Preview. You can see our own Laker Hockey team on and up and coming episode. Along with TV, Mike appeared as a guest on the Bob and Tom Radio Show. Mike discussed topics in his routine such as his life and career, places he’s been and other things such as relationships.  The crowd was also very involved in the show with some of our own students were used in many of the jokes, all in good fun however. Activities Board Director Amy Chrispell said that “the Activities Board was very pleased with the turnout, which was almost a full house, and the students’ response. I would also like to remind everyone to check their Lake State email and their Lake State calendar to keep up with upcoming acts and events here on campus.”  If anyone has any ideas for things they wish to see here on campus Amy can be reached at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it , ext 2756.
