Daniel Miller, of WISH TV8 reports, David Letterman and former daytime talk show queen Oprah Winfrey provided some inspiration and a few laughs Monday night. The two addressed a packed house at Letterman's alma mater, Ball State University.

Media Mogul Oprah Winfrey made a stop on Ball State's Campus Monday afternoon for David Letterman's lecture series. Letterman was also on campus, and before the two talked, they paid a visit to the communications building named in his honor and greeted a few students on campus.

After few interviews the two headed over to Emens Auditorium for the much anticipated conversation. It was often a serious one about Winfrey's life.

But her message was uplifting.

"You understand why this is stunning. This human experience of yours is stunning because it's going in one direction at the speed of light," Letterman said.

"I never thought of it as stunning because it just is my life; but maybe it is." Winfrey said.

"I feel personally touched and lucky to spend this kind of time with this woman," said Letterman.

More than 4,000 students and guests watched David and Oprah's Conversation from three buildings on campus. It's the third time David Letterman has returned to campus to conduct a conversation.
