Sociology of Violence: 2nd Period

Grissom is standing at the front of the class, feeding a few tarantulas who are perched on his desk in their terrariums. They've been officially banned from his apartment and office, and will now live in the lab. Poor T-Boz, Left Eye, and Chili spiders.

"Welcome, everyone. After doing all that reading this weekend, you should be familiar now with the material.

So, instead of lecturing you, today we will participate in a project.

Using the full resources of the Humanities wing (the AV/computer lab, Grissom's creepy stuff, the science materials, etc.), I'd like you to design some sort of Anti-Violence message for the campus.

You will not be graded on this, so feel free to be experimental. At the end of class, share describe, link, whatever what you have done with the class.

Sociology of the Paranormal: 6th Period

"Please turn in your homework."

Grissom then lectures on the Sokal Affair as his students probably nod off, and lets them go without assigning any homework.

Shep reads over it quickly, then scribbles:

I'd use the phone. I hear town has gone to hell in a handbasket. Unless I get to carry my P-90 with me, I'm not setting foot off campus until they get a grip... or a case of sleeping gas.

She reads his note, then raises her eyebrows at him and writes back.

I'm going to town. I should have gone yesterday. I owe him at least that much. Shep, he and Michael told me I'm family and I may have ruined that. I have to go. You're welcome to come play protector, but...

I don't know if I can get away tonight... seriously take mace or something. Call safewalk, do something proactive, okay?

It will still be light when I leave. I should be fine. And mace? Where would I get mace from? I'd have to go into town to get some - assuming anyone carries it. If I feel nervous and if someone puts a post up I'll call Safewalk if I need help getting home. Okay? Sheesh!

She tosses it over, then feels bad and dashes off another note and passes it over.

I'm sorry. That was rude. I appreciate your looking out for me. But Shep... if I've wrecked this... I just have to know.

I get that, really. I just want you to live to have it once you fix it. Just be careful. I've seen anarchy... it's never pretty.

I don't know that I *can* fix it. But I'll be careful. I swear.

And you're very sweet.
