Capstone Cinema

I went to see "The Sam Spady Story" to count as my Capstone Cinema. The presentation was quite moving. A speaker talked to us and then showed us a video about a college student named Sam Spady who died from alcohol poisoning. She had a very outgoing personality. She was class president in high school and prom queen her senior year. In college, she went partying at a sorority house with a group of friends and she was drinking all night. She was so drunk she couldn't walk. Her friends laid her down on a couch not realizing how wasted she actually was and left her there by herself. Her body was found dead the next morning while someone was giving a tour of the building. After her death, her parents created the Sam Spady foundation to make college students aware of the risks of drinking. The presentation was very effective. It explained the signs of alcohol poisioning and how to handle a situation if someone experienced those signs.
