W: Oh, Jack, I'm glad I caught you. I want to tell you I have to skip the history study group session tonight.
M: Really? That's too bad. Aren't you feeling well?
W: Oh, it' s not bad. There' s going to be a public meeting down at the town hall. The state sector from this area is going to be there. She has this meeting three or four times a year to speak with people.
M: Is that what you like to do with your evenings, go to listen to a politician's speech?
W: Actually, it's a class assignment. Professor Jackson, he's teaching that political science seminar I am taking. He told all of us in the seminar to go and hear what the senator has to say tonight and also write up a report about the issues people bring up.
M: Oh, like medical care, and tax and... ?
W: Right, as long as I'm there, I think I'd like to bring up government funding for state universities. The tuition keeps going up and it's getting harder and harder for a lot of students to afford it.
M: It is nothing new. Everybody knows about it.
W: Anyway, I want to do a really good job on this report. I need to get a letter of recommendation from Professor Jackson for a graduate school. So I guess I'd better show up there tonight and see what's going on.
M: Yeah, but, what about the history test?
W: Well, I already put in some time on that this morning. So I think by tomorrow afternoon, I'll be ready.
