SPS 2016: Talent Show and Karaoke Dance Party

As we wind down Week Four of the St. Albans School of Public Service 2016 program, it was great to get to see some of the talents that the SPS '16 students possess that go beyond the classroom or debate floor.  In the Thursday night Talent Show and Karaoke Dance Party, the talents on display included impressions (Anvesh's impression of Bernie Sanders brought down the house), a capella singing by Mariah, a group dance to "All the Single Ladies," Madeline's singing of "Hallelujah" self-accompanied by the guitar, and a duet by Jalen with K'Dreunna.  And once the Karaoke machine unspooled its magic, there was dancing and lip syncing galore!
