Parent and Family Weekend 2010 is taking place from October 22-24. The weekend will feature many exciting events including a live comedy performance by Howie Mandel. Mandel is listed on Comedy Central's list of the top 100 comedians of all time. He has had roles in comedy and dramatic TV and movies, and was the host of both the US and Canadian versions of the international smash hit game show "Deal or No Deal". He is now back on TV as the new judge on "America's Got Talent." This is sure to be a highlight of the weekend, so get your tickets early!
