The Library, Thursday

[genesishero]

Evan was actually in a pretty okay mood today thanks to Ozzy cuddles chasing away most of his nightmares last night. The books were all in a decent semblance of order by the time he'd come in, and he was pretty sure Sholeh had done most of the inventory that needed doing during her shift yesterday. That freed up much of his day for doing the really important things.

... Like maybe reading youth romance novels to see if they had any pointers on how to impress a girl. So far he wasn't all that convinced that the characters in the books actually knew what they were doing at all. Doing wheelies on dirtbikes didn't seem all that impressive at all when you had mutant powers and rocket boots.

Teen mutant romance really needed to be a legitimate genre, didn't it?

Ethics [Thursday, March 21, 2013, 2nd period]

"Today we are going to discuss the ethics of a situation you will be pushed into throughout your lives--," Anakin said, "--working in a group. whether it's for a grade or for a job, the prevailing theory is that more people working together is a good idea even if inevitably there is always one member who is absolutely dead weight that you will want to kill."

Anakin made a slight face. "All right, the scenario is this: you're in a group with four other people. You have a project due in two weeks on a subject you don't know anything about. One of the members of the group can only meet for a half hour once a week and never checks their email, two of the others spend their time making out instead of working, and the third one works hard but can't spell even a little bit. After you turn in your project, your teacher wants to know how your group worked. Do you tell the truth, knowing it will sink the other people's grades?"
