It's a muggy July morning, weeks before most Brandeis University students will haul their belongings into dorms. Lecture halls echo with emptiness, and the buzz of construction permeates the hallways. But in one small classroom, 10 incoming freshmen listen intently to feedback on the lab reports they wrote the day before.

“Your conclusion can't be like the third Lord of the Rings movie where you have 11 endings,” Marina Dang, a graduate student, tells the group. “But, don't worry, you guys all did a good job on yours.”
