Office Hours - Abnormal Psychology

[romanywitch]

Jenny is sitting in a bare office, and is typing happily away on her laptop, updating herself on all the new computer technology she's been missing out on.

ETA: The post is closed to new interaction. If you've already commented, then by all means, let's continue the conversation. But it's closed to anyone new. That's because I'm going to be sending out another email soon.

"Well, full disclosure is good," says Jenny seriously. "Also one of the basic requirements of the project. But fear is not what I'm interested in my students exploring. You and Medusa need to find something else."

"Ms. Calendar, with all respect, you deciding which aspects of psychology we should and shouldn't be studying in so arbitrary a fashion seems at best like censorship.

We understand that fear is not the only thing to study, and for our next project we will of course be choosing something else, so that we cover the full spectrum of the driving forces of humanity but I fail to see what you have against the study of fear," Jonathan says. He's very respectful and polite, if passionate about what he has to say.

((sorry, no comment notifies *kicks lj*))

Jenny shrugs. "Jonathan, I'm the teacher. It's my job to decide what aspects of psychology you should or shouldn't be studying. And since you're the student? I don't need to explain my reasoning to you. Even though I've already done so."

Jenny's voice is pleasant, but firm. "You and Medusa need to find something more positive. And I need the proposal by next Tuesday."

{{I understand. I'm still having some issues with it myself.}}

Jonathan nods and smiles what looks to be an understanding sort of smile.

"I understand of course," he says, "I simply wanted to exhaust all possible lines of communication on the matter. Medusa and I will have a new proposal in by next Thursday ma'am."

As soon as he's finished speaking he stands up, "It's been a pleasure Ms. Calendar, Psychology has always been my favorite class and I look forward to the future."

"Great!" exclaims Jenny. "Though I did say next Tuesday, not next Thursday. I look forward to seeing what the two of you come up with."
