The SAN Script – Friday, May 27
There is a universal respect and even admiration for those who are humble and simple by nature, and who have absolute confidence in all human beings irrespective of their social status.

Ending the Year Right
One year in May, as I was trying to cram in the final activities for a Dramatic Lit course, I promised my students we could watch the movie version of our last play on the last day of school. “What a fun way to close out the class,” I thought. The last day rolled around and students shuffled in. I overheard “This is the 3rd movie I’ve watched today.” At the end of class…that was it. They just walked out. How anti-climactic. All they did on their last day of school was pad from room to room watching movies.
