NBC’s “Parks and Recreation” mentions Carleton in “Prom Planning”

Carleton got a bit of a fun shout-out on NBC’s popular award-winning comedy program, “Parks and Recreation.” In season 6, episode 17, entitled “Prom Planning,” character Ben Wyatt (actor Adam Scott) proudly recalls his days as “the king of swing” when he hosted a radio show at Carleton College called “Zoot Suit Wyatt.”
