September 13, 1994 — Speaker prescribes doses of laughter
One of the key strategies for self-improvement is to laugh more, according to the Sr. Mary Christelle Macaluso, the St. Mary College professor and motivational speaker who bills herself as "The Fun Nun." She had her audience laughing a good deal Monday night during a presentation at Wayne State College's Ramsey Theatre. Her appearance in Wayne was sponsored by the Wayne Area Chamber of Commerce Education Council and the Wayne State Student Activities Board. "Take your laugh medicine at least 15 times a day," she said. "Depression lowers the immune system," said the medically educated member of the Sisters of Mercy religious order. Developing a sense of humor doesn't mean going around and telling jokes all the time, she said, it simply means "developing the ability to bring happiness into the life of another human being as well as your own."
