My involvement with this little student-run film festival began in 2008 when it was called ‘Salmagundi Film Festival.’ In 2009 I became the director of the film festival and would be for the next 2 years. I did all sorts of things, including changing the name a few times, but you can read about it in the Daily Progress in 2009 -> [here] & [here] for 2010 !
