Ethics [Monday, January 7, 5th period]

[sith_happened]

If there was one thing Darth Vader excelled at, it was making a memorable first impression.

He waited until the classroom was full, then stalked in, cape flaring behind him.

He twitched his fingers as he reached the center of the room and the door slammed shut behind him.

"I am Darth Vader," he intoned over the even mechanized breathing of his suit. "I trust you may have already heard of me." His masked face scanned the faces in front of him. If he was at all affected by any negative thoughts and emotions being directed at him, he wasn't showing it. "You will refer to me as either Darth Vader or Lord Vader. Any other address will result in detention." He began pacing the room. "You should be grateful for that. Very few have ever been granted advanced warning of my actions.

"Today we discuss how far over the line you would go to save someone you love." Vader's voice turned cold. "I don't want to hear that you wouldn't go over a line. Would you lie for someone? Steal for them? Kill for them? Does it matter to you if it's friend or family? Does how much you love--" and yes, the word sounded awkward coming from that particular visage, "--that person affect how far you would go for them?"

Vader crossed his arms over his chest and waited for the first student to speak.

{OOC: Roster and syllabus here. I'm starting my first day of work in an internetless environment tomorrow morning, so Vader will be responding late. Please don't burn the classroom down while I'm gone :).]

D.A.M.M. - Monday 1/7 - Period 1

Once the students are settled a dramatic explosion fills the space in front of the white board, generating a purple sparkling mushroom cloud of moaning skulls. When it clears, a tall wild eyed man in a red smoking jacket and pin-stripped slacks is standing there.

( Greeeeeetings students! )

Fitness - Monday - Period 3

Yondaime pursed his lips as he looked over the very tiny class list; this was going to be interesting. He put on a smile as everyone came in and waited till they were seated to start speaking.

"Hello, as you can see this is going to be a very small class, and because of that I had to throw out the syllabus that I had planned." The blond gave them all a sheepish smile. "But on the bright side, we're all going to decide what we want to cover for the quarter." Yondaime said, rubbing his neck and pulling out a note pad to write on. "General aspects like regular excercise and taking care of yourself we're still going to cover, but the sports are what I'd like to discuss with all of you."

[Wait for OCD OCD is up!]

Traditional Fairy Tales, Class One

[a-phale.livejournal.com]

Monday, January 8, Period 2

Aziraphale was in the classroom bright and early, to make certain everything was ready for his new class. With the assistance of Lana and Phoebe, he had quite a nice spread of pastries and hot tea, coffee and cocoa. As it had been last year, the classroom was arranged with comfortable furnishings rather than desks and chairs, and the walls held shelves full of books.

Once everyone was assembled, he stood near his armchair and smiled at the class. "Good morning, and welcome to Traditional Fairy Tales. For those of you who are new to the school, my name is Aziraphale. However, I do realize that's quite a mouthful, so you may shorten it to 'Mr Phale' or 'Professor Phale' if you like. Let me also introduce your TAs for this class: Lana Lang and Phoebe Halliwell. They'll be assisting me, and will also be available to help you should you need it."

( And here the angel goes on and on... )

ASSIGNMENT:
"For next week, please read "Jack the Giant Killer" and "Molly Whuppie".

[ooc: Not all of the posts will be this long, I promise! Lots of housekeeping to get done in the first class. Please wait for the OCD threads are up! *rings bell*]

Conflict Management and Resolution: Mon Period 4 - Class # 1 - Jan 8

[dr-jwilsonmd.livejournal.com]

Conflict Management and Resolution was being held in the same tiered style classroom that Wilson had used the prior semester. Despite what people might have heard on the radio, the doctor was in attendance for the first class, though he was sitting down behind his desk talking quietly with a blond haired man. Anyone who had taken Traditional Fairy Tales earlier in the day would recognize the other man as Professor Aziraphale.

Laid out on the desk was a sign in sheet and a platter of deviled eggs, cubes of cheese, crackers, veggies and fresh fruit. Wilson simply couldn’t bring himself to serve brownies and cookies just before lunch; at least, not on the first day. There was hot apple cider, tea and coffee as well. Once everyone was in and settled in their seats, Wilson carefully levered himself up to his feet, waving off Professor Phale’s assistance with a soft smile before making his way around to the front of the desk.

“Good morning.” Wilson smiled. “Welcome to Conflict Management and Resolution. I am your professor for this class, Dr. James Wilson M.D. As a few familiar faces can tell you, I taught at the school last semester and have worked on Fandom at the clinic both in years prior and currently. I will be holding office hours on Tuesday mornings from 9:30am until noon but I can also be reached for a specific appointment and you are welcome to stop by the clinic when I am on shift."

Turning to pick up a pile of papers, Wilson nodded to Pippi and Blair, and when they came down, he split the pile of papers between them to be handed out.

“For those of you who haven’t met them yet, I’d like to introduce you to the two TAs for this course, Pippi Longstocking and Blair Sandburg. They will be helping me with some of the more interactive classes and if I am out for any reason will lead the class. In that event I will expect everyone to give them their strict attention and respect.”

Giving the two a smile, Wilson sent them on their way, while carefully levering himself up to sit on the desk.

“Pippi and Blair are handing out the syllabus for this class. On it you will find a breakdown of what we will be studying this semester, my expectations for you and my voicemail as well. Every week there will be a sign in sheet, probably right up here near the food. I ask that you remember to sign yourself in as I’ll keep attendance off this sheet. If for some reason you know you have to miss a class or you’ve missed a class, please get in touch with me ASAP so I can help you catch up with the work you missed. Does anyone have any questions?”

Leaning forward, he let Blair and Pippi finish handing out the syllabus and retake their own seats, also attentive for any questions the students might have. Once everybody was settled once more, he carefully slid off the desk and walked towards an overhead.
