I think back to classes and see if I can remember anything from them. Some classes I don't remember anything that really lit up my mind, but this class has so many of those moments, I'm sure I'll look back and draw upon it after I graduate.

A lot of us are dealing with other productions, internships and graduate school auditions.

We've done classes dealing with set, lighting, sound, and we had to take a directing class. We've taken a smattering of it all, and this class is like taking a baby and throwing it in the water to see if it swims. This class tests how much you really remember.

I think that everybody would gain a sense that literature is important, it's one of the reasons why we're alive. There's eating, sleeping, survival stuff, but I think that you really can't survive without literature, without poetry. It's a joy of life, which is funny to say when your curriculum includes Hemingway. It makes you go out in the world in a different way and look for beauty, a different way of expressing yourself.

Habits... the only reason they persist is that they are offering some satisfaction. You allow them to persist by not seeking any other, better form of satisfying the same needs. Every habit, good or bad, is acquired and learned in the same way -- by finding that it is a means of satisfaction.

We've had many people suspended for actions we deemed harmful to Hollywood Foreign Press - we're trying to protect our image. Certainly none ended up in suicide. If Nick did take his life, which seems apparent, I don't think you can say there's a causal relationship between the two.
