Friday Ethics Class #2, 8-10am

[brambless.livejournal.com]

Tara looks excited, as students trickle in, bouncing slightly on the balls of her feet.

"Okay, we've got a lot to get through today. Two announcements to start:

First, Teacher's Assistants have been chosen. I have a carrot - Major K! - and a stick - Angelus. If you're having trouble grasping a concept, talk to Major K!. He'll guide you through the thinking. If you think you've got a hold on it, talk to Angelus. He'll challenge your thinking, give you the opportunity to clarify your position.

Second, and related to the latter - this class is not an easy A. At some point in this course you will find yourself challenged and confronted. For many of you, that will be today. If you walk out of this classroom before class is over, and without checking it with me, I may be understandably upset. However, I recognise that if you get angry or upset, you may need some time alone, or away from the group. To that end, I present to you the Emo Closet Time Out Room." She walks to the back of the classroom and opens the door to what previously was a supply cabinet. Inside is what looks very much like a white padded room. "This room is soundproofed. You can cry, scream and punch things all you want, and I will not penalise you for leaving the class or the discussion. Major K! or I will come to check on anyone who goes to the Emo Closet Time Out Room, in case you need help or support. Feel free to tell us to leave you alone.

Now, we've got our first debate to hear, a discussion topic to... um, discuss, and your first out of class assignment. Which you are going to kill, or at least seriously maim, me for giving you.

Assignment part 2: Hierarchy

[brambless.livejournal.com]

All students in class have been assigned a partner. All students have been assigned their role in the partnership. You cannot switch roles or partners without clearing it with me.

In addition to the Master/slave pairings all students in the class are considered subordinate to the TAs, who are themselves subordinate to myself. We have only two orders:

1) Address us respectfully. Angelus will be henceforth referred to as 'Daddy', Major K! will be henceforth referred to as 'Rabbit', and if you have need to talk to me, you may address me as 'My Lady'.
2) Call any of us immediately to report if your partner has violated the rules of this assignment. All three of us will have our cell phones on and with them for the duration of the assignment. If you feel things have gone or are going too far, call at once and we will help you.

[ooc: which means you may ping me either on AIM or MSN as 'Shaalwyd' to get my attention. All three of us have our voicemail in our user profiles.]

Faith nodded. "It's kinda creepy. Especially since he wants you guys too"
