RISD students have a special affinity for zombies that in my first year I’ve begun to vaguely understand. At the recent senior receptions organized by Institutional Engagement VP Beth Garvin together with our Student Affairs Associate Provost Barbara Fienman, I had the chance to meet Mr. Andrew Fogel, one of our aspiring young film directors in the Class of 2009, who directed the above piece on zombies which I had the pleasure of watching on my ATV with the students from our Film, Animation, and Video department headed by Prof. Dennis Hlynski. Thanks to this opportunity, I don’t think I will ever take a zombie for granted. -JM
