It’s about proving to yourself and others that you actually existed in this world, and having the opportu- nity to say, clearly, what you truly believe,” Anderson said. The class is a new addition to the Continuing Education program and students are encouraged to register early. Anderson currently teaches cinema studies classes for the program and has a reputation among students as an interac- tive and engaging instructor.
