Kathy Donnell's Interview Shooting

Today was another great day shooting Kathy Donnell's interview. The team worked very well together to make the interview go smoothly, here is what Sandi had to say:

Today we enjoyed a fun interview with Kathy Donnell! Ms. Donnell attended the school when it was pretty new and she shared her wonderful stories with us-- some about Dr. Milo Johnson and the pranks they pulled on him, as well as others about the SGA and athletics. She came back to MSJC some years later and has been working here for 17 years now! When we asked her what the school means to her she told us it was a huge part of her life and that she really loves it ( she said it much more passionately and expressively, though). We could easily see how attached she is to the people she works with and to the students who go here. More than once, we could hear just the slightest crack in her voice, and the whole time we could feel the power of her emotions as she told us about our college. By the end of the interview she certainly wasn't the only person in the room who needed a tissue--I saw several members of our team wiping their eyes! When we started this project a few months ago, I really didn't know much about this school, it had always been around and I didn't really think about it much. Now, however, I am so proud to be an Eagle and I have to thank all the people who shared, and continue to share, their stories with us for that.
