As students entered, Professor Roslin was at the front of the room, flipping through a packet of materials, one similar to those left on each desk for the students. It consisted of excerpts, clippings, and notes she had made from her various readings throughout the semester, containing commentary on human nature and how human nature shaped communities. She had made sure to include some of the Revolutionary thinkers -- Rousseau, Locke, Jefferson, and even Hamilton and Washington -- as well as some she didn't care for as much, such as Hobbes. There might have even been a bit about Plato's "City in Speech"...and how, with human nature, it could never truly exist.

Laura began class as the bell rang. "Good afternoon, everyone. I hope you've had as...entertaining...a week as I've had," she said, mentally reminding herself to go to the clinic as soon as possible.

"I'm not sure how things are run here," she continued, "but today will be considered a reading day. The packets I've given you should provide some good food for thought as you go into the weekend. Your exam next week will be part verbal response, part essay. For the rest of the class period, please review the information in the packets, discussing it and the material from the rest of the semester with your classmates." She paused, smiling. "Please try to stay on topic for at least twenty minutes.

"I'll be available at the front during class, or in my office tomorrow and Wednesday, should you have any questions or like to discuss any of the material."

With that, she took her seat and allowed the students to read and discuss.

[OCD coming soon.]

Sam reviewed the packets.

Marco was reading the packets, really. Ignore the way his eyes seemed to be close at the same time.

Naomi tried to focus on reviewing the packets but her thoughts were mostly on other thing.

...for the other 40 minutes of class.

Laura sat at her desk, penning a letter. It was one that would never be sent, but material in it was likely to be used in a phone call she was planning to make...as soon as she gathered the courage to do so.

...is it possible house hunting can be both fun and stressful?

I really hate being a responsible adult sometimes...
