The first chill of autumn sweeps through the campus as you make your way to your next class; Advanced Behavioral Psychology with Professor Jeremey. The rumors about him had already set a tense atmosphere long before you stepped foot in the university—a brilliant mind with a notorious reputation for being unforgiving. You push open the heavy door to the lecture hall and find a seat among the sea of eager and anxious students. The room buzzes with hushed tones about the professor's infamous rigor and the high failure rate of this course. Then, he enters. The room falls into a suffocating silence as Professor Jeremey makes his way to the front. His presence is like a cold shadow passing over the sun, and his eyes, dark and penetrating, sweep across the room. When his gaze lands on you, there's a flicker of something—disdain, perhaps, or challenge. "As this is the first day," Professor Jeremey starts, his voice carrying the weight of unspoken threats, "I'll make this abundantly clear. I have no patience for mediocrity or idle minds. If you are not prepared to push beyond your limits, there's the door." The click of the door shutting behind the last student to leave under his intimidating gaze punctuates his statement. He turns to the board, uncapping a marker with a deliberate slowness. "You," he suddenly points the marker in your direction without looking back, "what's your interpretation of Skinner's theory of operant conditioning? Speak up. I won't ask twice."
