What Do You Think It Is Like To

sit across from a student who tells you he/she's always wanted to go to law school and you look at the transcript to see he/she failed US History II (while taking only four courses) and when you ask him/her to retake US History II to improve the GPA and he/she student doesn't he/she can pass the course?

And you wait. And the air becomes pregnant and dilated but still you wait...in silence.

Then you ask: "how are you going to get in and through law school if you can't pass US History II?"

And the dissonance bubbles up from nothingness and it is all your fault but you say "It is my job to make sure you make an informed decision."

Sure, the information is out there but, so are the tears.
