Journalism Class - Thursday October 13

[jerusalem-s.livejournal.com]

Spider is sitting at his desk, watching the cat with morbid fascination as it brings him another frog. There are four of them on the desk already and judging by the noises created as it dives beneath one of the student desks, there will shortly be five. Distracted by the advent of his students, he waves a hand at them.

"As you know, Parent's Weekend is coming up. I've been informed that it's customary to have something to show your parents when they show up so that they're under the continued, mistaken impression that the money they're paying for your enrollment is actually being put to good use. Today I want to hear suggestions as to what sort of project the Journalism students could do in order to impress their collective parents, guardians, parole officers or 'other' when they arrive." Spider smiled maliciously at his students.

Rising to his feet, he went to the back of the classroom and leaned over the velvet rope separating the Newspaper section from the rest of the room and filled a cup with coffee. "Now, along those same lines, later today I'll be posting next week's homework assignment. As previously stated, this will be group projects and will require photographs. I'm thinking of groups of no more than four, unless we end up with an odd number, and I will," his eyes glinted as he looked over the top of his glasses, "fail anyone who does not contribute to the efforts of the group. Start working on your cooperation skills, kids. Your grade may depend on it."

Angela rolls her eyes slightly. "Rory is kissing Jake to make her boyfriend jealous. George and I were talking about our relationships."

"And we have no idea what we're doing as far as class goes. We were thinking about doing something to show what we've learned already, but that sounds like a lot of work."

"See, I would be so much better at answering that question if I had, like, taken notes most days." Angela flips through her class notebook in disgust. "Phoebe is his assistant, maybe she would have some ideas?"

"Oh," Angela says. She can't quite tell what went down in the Jayne/George/Phoebe/Cole thing, and isn't sure she really wants to know. The last she heard, Phoebe was living with Jayne, but it doesn't sound like things are good, there.

"No problem. We don't need to."
