Teacher: This is not high school. I do not tolerate tardiness.

Chloe: I was here on time. It's just there are no more seats.

Teacher: If you would have come earlier than you would have a seat. We wasted enough time. Please take out your textbook and turn to chapter 7.

Chloe looks around to see everyone pulling out his or her textbooks. She has a confused looked on her face. She finds an empty seat and quickly sprint to it.

Teacher: Welcome to FAS 104. This course will focus on both the historical and cultural development of fashion, clothing, and consumption. Using a variety of sources, from fiction to art, from legal codes to advertisements, we will study both actual garments created and worn in society throughout history, as well as the ways in which they inform the social characterization of class, ethnicity, nationality, and gender attributed to fashion.

Students begin to take notes as the teacher talks. Chloe takes a deep sigh, as she realizes that she is underprepared.

They both laugh. The waiter returns with Harvey's coffee.

They look over at Jack who is texting on his phone. Jordan grabs the two drinks.

Jordan: If you have a few minutes you should come hang out with us.
