Listen to what SMCC student Regina Tellez has to say: "It (the Faculty Concert) opened me up to a whole new thing. I didn't think people told stories like the ones I heard. But everyone spoke with such a presence that it made you listen to what they were saying. I like the fact that storytellers can tell stories about anything they want. They can tell you a story about something in their life or tell you about a whole world that doesn't really exist and take you out of reality for a moment. As I listened to the stories, I could picture the people and the obejcts that were being talked about. I didn't notice it at first but when I went back and thought about the storeis, I realized that I had actually created characters in my head. Storytelling is a great thing, it brings people togther and helps you learn more about who they are. Everyone has a story to tell, but storytellers have a way of telling storeis that make them unforgettable."
