Abstract

The article presents the experience of the author in a psychiatric hospital. There were two beginnings, the author supposes. The one when the students started moving in and the other when the author started noticing them. The author is not sure what the gap between these two moments was, probably not very long. Perhaps they started moving in right from the beginning of the year, the academic year the author means, in the first week of October. That would have been the obvious time if they had all planned it together. Though even at this stage, even after all that has happened, the author has no real evidence of any collaboration, any collusion between them. At the end they certainly saw each other, but that was all. Anyway, it was towards the end of January, a few weeks after the start of the second term, when he first noticed anything. Students often walked in and out of lecture courses. It was also not unusual to find those who claimed that it had taken them a whole term to get it together to find the right times and rooms.
