President Paul W. Ferguson announced the "David Letterman Experience" during the Dave at Ball State event Nov. 30 at John R. Emens Auditorium. It will be displayed in the David Letterman Communication and Media Building on campus.
The new Letterman Experience will feature his Emmy Awards and will include props and pieces from the sets of "Late Night" and "Late Show."
“In his return home tonight, we all celebrate his national legacy as well as a new chapter of this storied relationship between Ball State University and David Letterman,” Ferguson said in a press release.
Letterman's appearance was his first at Ball State since retiring from television. His guests for the evening were film directors Spike Jonze and Bennett Miller.
Since his time as a student at Ball State, Letterman has been a big part of the university. He has created a scholarship for students, helped fund the creation of the campus radio station and created a lecture series in his name, among other contributions.
“I’m so lucky to have been invited back. I want to thank everybody here, everybody on campus and the people who run this university,” Letterman said of the gift. “It’s an honor to maintain this association, so thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.”
