Lewis Carroll Paragraph

The overall tone at Devon is angrier and more violent in the Winter Session as compared to the more subtle and nicer side of Devon during the Summer Session. During the Winter Session, the campus at Devon is a sadder and more serious place. Quackenbush, the manager of the crew team displays this angry and violent tone when he says, “Go to hell Forrester… listen you maimed S.O.B. I hit him hard across the face. I didn’t know why for an instant; it was almost as though I were maimed.” This quote demonstrates the escalating tempers and angry comments seen during the winter months at Devon. These things never happened during the Summer Session. Now, all of a sudden, major fights break out because of mean and vicious words. This is also more evident because of the fact that his temper truly escalated over the position of being the manger of the crew team and a “yes it does matter and no it doesn’t” type of conversation. This somewhat childish conversation demonstrates that the students in Devon are much more angrier through Gene’s perspective.
