Sociology of Violence

Grissom hands out the midterm. It has two sections, multiple choice, and an essay portion.

The essay question reads as follows: Now that you've had the chance to speak to Mr. Fraser, the school's head of security, and using what you have learned in this class, what recommendations would you make to him when it comes to this school's safety? Please provide at least one method of security in your answer, whether is be a rule or restriction, a defense mechanism, etc. and justify your reponse.

Sociology of the Paranormal

Grissom hands out the midterm. It has two sections, multiple choice, and an essay portion.

The essay question reads as follows: A close friend comes to you, and tells you that they have experienced a paranormal event, one that you find difficult to believe actually happened even in Fandom. What is your reaction? And how would that reaction affect both you, and the person in question?



OOC:

So, there are two parts.

#1) Please give me a letter grade, or some approximation thereof, of how your character did on the multiple choice. Let's say there are 30 questions, of varying difficulty, if you want to get that detailed. Otherwise, I make the grade up, and it will be bad, because I am mean and out of soda today.

#2) You can actually write the essay, briefly describe the contents of the essay (Bob writes an essay on installing a death ray laser on the roof of the building, as a safety precaution for the next attack of not-quite-living.) or even handwave it, but Grissom or maybe his TAs in chat tonight if they're around, mwa ha ha! is going to grade it. The grades will be averaged, 50/50, and Wednesday the students will get their grades.

Just to shake things up a little. Oh, and any of the characters that had crazy-ass Spring Breaks, and didn't get their studying in even though they are an A type of student, feel free to have them do poorly, there will be an creepy lab type in-class extra-credit thing next Monday. (Mwa ha ha)

"Let's talk about this over dinner," she says finally, stepping back. "I'm actually feeling hungry now."

"Pickles and ice cream?"

He gets his shoulder thumped for that.

Then she looks away, shifty. "Turkey."

He, for once, doesn't do the boneheaded thing.

"Your body requires certain things now in more of an abundance. The doctor will put you on vitamins, the craving will probably subside once you adjust. And not too much, okay? You eat fish, but still, your body needs time to adjust to processing meat again. Too much too fast will make you sick."

"Why don't we go home, and we can share a sandwich and I'll make some vegetable soup?"

"That sounds good," she says with a sigh. "And I seem to have taken up the rest of your office hours."

"You know, this office..." he trails off, smirking a little as he gathers their things, stuffing exams to grade into his briefcase and handing Sara her jacket. "Maybe it was cursed by a gypsy. Love spell?"

Sadly, it's probably a possibility.

"Distinct possibility for this place but," and she kisses his cheek, "I loved you long before we came here."

And they go home (http://equalsmcsquared.livejournal.com/30977.html)
