Susan again sits in the rapidly-filling back row, waiting for others to file in. It isn't the best spot*, but it'll do.


*The best spot, being of course, off to the side and out of view of anyone who might try to copy her papers or annoy her with questions like "Which class is this again?". It wouldn't hurt to be near a window, either, to shoo away small pests.**

**And fling larger ones out the window if absolutely necessary.
