Maya saw it during her lunch break. A seemingly innocuous blog post, titled "Exceptional Essays That Got These Students In," and there, the opening lines of her essay. She recoiled, as if physically struck. Her appetite vanished.

She grabbed her phone, the world tilting slightly. Her stomach felt like a lead weight. That was *hers*. That was deeply personal.

Her hand trembled as she began a furious email, her fingers flying across the screen, each word a venomous strike. This violation of privacy was completely unacceptable.
