My blinker shuts off as I complete my turn into one of the Lake Havasu Campus parking lots, driving around and pulling into a parking spot. I grab my things, slam my door behind me, and walk towards the closest building.
I check my watch as I reach for the door handle; I made it just in time, I think to myself as I enter the room. Students chat as the instructor inserts a disc into the computer. I tak...

A car alarm goes off. A fly buzzes around the room. The air conditioner kicks on and off. Yet, I hear none of it.
It's a Monday afternoon, and I have an essay due in Astronomy. My eyes dart over my textbook, fingers poised carefully above the letters of my laptop's keyboard. I reach around to pull my hair out of my eyes, but my hand catches on a white cord dangling freely in front of my shoulder. I jo...
