Lahti had a role in the highly acclaimed the joy that comes TV movie, "The Executioner's Song," and Sister remembers calling her that night long with the final scene. distance to tell her how pleased she was with her performance. Sister still keeps in touch Usually, I sit and cry with one of the screen's most talked about newcomers. on the last day." That personal touch is what seems to establish Sr. Francesca from the rest. Her —Sr. Francesca pleasure is conveyed to her Fordham students at the end of the semester. Admitting that Thompson most pupils aren't very good for their first few scenes, Sister takes pride in knowing that by the end of the semester they have come a long way. "There is no joy, like the joy that comes with the final scene," she says with vigor. "Usually, I sit and cry on the last day, because a history teacher doesn't get to see how much a person has learned except what they give them on a test." That brings up the question of academics. Should an acting course be worth four credits in the Communications Department? There should be little doubt that Dramatic Communication is academic, simply because it is a "discipline." A discipline that serves as a welcome remedy in a department that always seems to be ailing, due to a lack of interesting courses. The debate on whether or not the class should be worth credit came up last year when Sister began teaching the course. She says she knows "there are people who don't think it's academic enough." But she adds, "It's placed under communications because acting is a form of communication; it is an art form that becomes a discipline." Acting is a "discipline" that seems to be the general rule among Sister and her students about why this Mciica Flanagan/ THE RAM course should be worth credit. Sister confirms "that anything that disciplines a student, Dramatic Communication: broadens a student, and certainly enhances the personal stretching of a student, bears serious consideration," as a needed aspect of academics and an example of the true classroom experience. Her students agree wholeheartedly. "This Putting On an Act is not easy," attests Antonini. "It is very intense, memorizing lines within a week's "Have I seen you in your best light yet?" her class is fun," adds the Communications describes "that the blood starts pumping, and time; it's difficult."
