"That's just…insane," Sarah muttered under her breath, staring at the F on her philosophy paper. Her cheeks burned, and a tremor ran through her hands. She couldn't believe it. She'd poured her heart and soul into that essay, wrestling with complex ideas, constructing sophisticated arguments. She'd met with the professor twice!

She crumpled the paper in her fist, her fingers leaving indents in the already abused document. She felt a sudden, overpowering urge to crumple the professor's face in the same manner. This was not the grade she deserved, and she was going to be heard. She took a purposeful stride towards the office.
