Maryland13: My son is an Acting major and knows a lot of the SAC students, and some of the staff too. He took one of the SAC courses last year. There’s some natural overlap with the students from these 2 depts since the film students need actors and the acting students need to act. I’ve met the head of the screenwriting dept - a very nice guy with a few major motion pictures on his resume and like all Wolverines, lots of connections (presumably). One of the SAC seniors is directing a play in the student-run theatre program (Google "Basement Arts). Also - SAC students participate in the Hopwood Awards writing competition - particularly the Kasdan Scholarship - another thing you might want to Google. Good Luck and Go Blue.
