Today, was the last day of my Theatre 170 class. They all presented their monologues...I was truly blown away by their growth. Sometimes you need to be reminded of why you do what you do. They reminded me everyday of what my purpose is. I am truly blessed to have taught these dope people! I'm truly blessed to have the opportunity to be taught by them. Thank you, my 170 students! #Searsly #ProfessorSears #MFAActor #ActingSavedMyLife #uofi #GradSchool #BlackMenThatTeach
