"Good morning," Ellie greeted the class as the students arrived. "I recognize some of you, and it's good to see you back. I'm Dr. Ellie Arroway, but you can call me Ellie. I'm a big fan of short classes on the first day, so I'm just going to give you an overview of what the class will be this semester, see if you have any questions, and then let you go.

"Essentially, each session of this class will have a guest speaker from an extraterrestrial culture. Some of them will be students or teachers I recruit from the school, and many will be new to Fandom. They will give an overview on what life is like on their world, and the differences between their culture and life on Earth. You're encouraged to ask questions.

For today, I'd just like you to introduce yourselves and tell me why you're taking this class. I'll be here if you have any questions, otherwise you're free to go."

"Hey, I'm Summer. Guess I'm taking this class because there's so many aliens around here. Thought it might be good to learn about their cultures and stuff," Summer said. "Also, I know someone back home who's gonna be so totally jealous that I'm in this class and he's not."

Ellie grinned. "Well, hopefully you'll learn a few things that you can taunt him with the next time you go home," she said.
