...understood that bad things happen in prisons, but we don't generally imagine them happening to students temporarily held there. Hasnain Javed, a Pakistani, was traveling by bus on Sept. 19 from a family reunion in Houston to New York City, where he was studying computer programming at Queensborough Community College. At a 5 a.m. stop in Mobile, Ala., Javed's bus was searched by border-patrol agents as part of a series of routine inspections.

Or the casts from Loeb Mainstage productions who derive endless “reunion dinners” from their brief flings with theatrical performance (and one another).
