Leadership: Thursday, Period 1, Class 1. (9/4/08)

"Morning everyone," Nathan said. He took a spot at the head of the class. He was, as near darned always, dressed in a suit. "I'm Mr. Petrelli. For anyone here who might be close with my brother Peter, I'm still Mr. Petrelli."

Nathan handed out the syllabus and class rules. "Here's the overview of the class for the semester. Make sure to read it as OOC rules are in there too. Because I'm a lawyer there is the fine print of classes being subject to change at any time.

"Today's class is going to be very easy though. First, I want everyone to introduce themselves with their name and why they're taking the class. Second?"

Nathan sat down behind his desk, looking for all the world like he was done for the day. "Someone needs to be in charge of this class. Let me know if you figure out who that is.

"And Meg? Come see me after class. Thanks."

[ooc: OCD is up! Be sure to read the OOC note as well as the class rules. Thanks!]

Nathan smiled, not surprised at Turtle's reaction. "Of course you could get people to follow you even if they didn't want to."

"Well, sure, yeah, you could," Turtle said, "but then that's a dictatorship. You can only get away with it for so long before those people revolt against you or someone shoots you in the head or another potential leader goes to war with you. It's much easier to rule over happy subjects than it is unhappy ones, in the grand scheme of things."

"That's one point of view," Nathan said. "We'll get into some others later in the semester. Thanks, Turtle."
