Springfest kicked off its events with Skit Night 2007 last Friday.
This year's Skit Night was hosted by Eric O'Shea, the College Comedian of the Year.
Students, family and fellow Greek Life members lined outside the Edgerton Theatre starting at 6:30 p.m.
"The show was very entertaining, good humor and a lot of talent," said Dawn Doucette, one of the judges for Skit Night.
O'Shea opened the show with a comic set followed by Nu Epsilon Omega's skit "Turn Back Time."
"Skit is not all about winning; it is about spending time with your sisters. It's rare we get to spend time together with all of us there so it is really special time for us. Its hard work but we seem to pull it off every year," said Lauren Di Stefano, sophomore, Berkeley Heights, N.J.
Other performances included Lamda Sigma Phi 's "Lamda Law," Omega Phi Kappa's "Omega Zone," Zeta Iota Lamda's "Cookies and Cream," Alpha Sigma Psi's "SHU Nation," Beta Delta Phi's "Beta Night Live" and closing the show was Delta Phi Kappa's.
"Many of the groups danced, which to me is always entertaining because I advise and coach SHU F.O.R.C.E so I am always looking forward to seeing groups dance," said Doucette.
"I love the tradition in each fraternity and sorority has; whether it is stepping, playing "drums" on randorm furniture, using the glow sticks, and dancing," said Doucette.
Beta Delta Phi's skit "Beta Night Live" competitively finished third behind Delta Phi Kappa in second place. Omega Phi Kappa won the show with their skit "Omega Zone."
"No one has any idea what to expect going into skit night, your blind to the competition. As the show goes on, you keep thinking to yourself, 'wow they are doing great," said Victoria Lassek, sophomore, East Islip, N.Y.
"I just kept hoping that the audience and judges would find our skit funny and enjoy it," said Lassek.
Judges of the night were Javon Noblin and Lucy Cox and Doucette.
"I have judged Skit Night in the past, so I had a pretty good idea what to expect. I always expect to be entertained," said Doucette.
