The other students' ears perked up and all of a sudden the discussion turned to my long career as a director for the cable network "Court TV". For the next 20 minutes or so, I talked about all the famous trials I had been involved with. Students were mesmerized by this "speech". Questions ranged from how we handled the trials from a technical standpoint to gory details about the crimes.
You never know when a teaching opportunity pops up. I found it to be one of my most rewarding classes to date. The blending of technical TV talk with real life drama hopefully will open students minds to the career possibilities that lie before them
