Professor Bellaire inspected each student as they entered the classroom and nodded at those who had passed her inspection and also returned their good days and 'how are you' with a fine thank you.

Man it took a whole lot of getting used to.
"Does anyone want to add anything else, maybe you've read something else or maybe you just have a question. Now is the time to ask it."
