Found out some of the saddest news I’ve ever heard in my life. A dear friend of mine, a classmate, and fellow student took her life yesterday, Lalegi Klean. She sat behind me in 395. Never again will I see her face and share light conversation with her. Later that day I had class with Stephanie, my appreciation for her knows no bounds, I have never met such a gospel in tuned teacher on campus. She gave a very inspiring and moving speech about what kind of actor you need to be; one that choose to skirt the line, or be a zealot of following the church’s rules while acting. I think I’ll try and ride the line between the two although that is a dangerous path the travel from what Rodger has told me.

I was impressed because her speech was from the heart and you could really feel the weight behind her words. Stephanie is the director for Stage Door and Lalegi was the shows Dramaturge, her and Stephanie where close and her death, you could tell, had impacted her.
