Tactics of War [Monday, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.]

Eighth walks into her classroom, followed by a handful of her brethren who quickly form up to write "Dr. Samantha Carter – Tactics of War" on the chalkboard. She sits demurely at her desk as her students file in and she stands when the bell rings.

Welcome students to The Tactics of War. It is so nice to see so many familiar faces in class today and also very nice to see some unfamiliar ones. I hope you all had a pleasant holiday break.

I am Dr. Samantha Carter, please call me Dr. Carter. As some of you know or may have guessed, I am not human but a human-form replicator, which simply put, means that I’m a machine who is more than merely sentient. As such, I have been in many battles due to various circumstances and have lived to tell the tale. Please do not worry, however, as my brethren and I mean you no harm yet.

This semester we will be learning in this class about the theories and approaches to War Tactics. Many classes will be lecture/discussion focused and there will be a midterm and a final.

In approximately seven classes, we will be studying examples of specific (yet completely theoretical) battle situations in which you (thanks to the wonders of my technology) will be able to speak with the theoretical hero and/or villain who was there during the battle and made a key tactical decision.

I hope each and every one of you leaves this class with a bit more ingenuity and cunning and will face the crises and dark situations of your young teenage years with greater courage.

Now I have two activities for you:

One: Introduce yourselves to your classmates by telling us your name, year, and your favorite cliché during battle scenes in film and television.

Two: Fill out the following survey. I will be the only one who sees your answers, so be honest. *looks specifically at the SG teenagers* I will know if you are not.


And before I forget, my office hours are Wednesday and Friday from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

Now get to it, ladies and gentlemen!

Ivanova winced. "Please, call me Ivanova."

Parker mentally applauds Ivanova for using her last name. Woot.

Ivanova mentally bows.
