Dear Mr. Vernon,

We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it is that we did wrong. What we did was wrong, but we think you're crazy to make us write an essay telling you who we think we are. What do you care? You see us as you want to see us – in the simplest terms and the most convenient definitions. You see us as a brain, an athlete, a basket-case, a princess, a juvenile delinquent, and a criminal. Correct? That's the way we saw each other at seven o'clock this morning. We were brainwashed…
