"Wait, wait, this is important:" Bucky announced, as the class was getting ready to join the protest. "What are we protesting? I mean, seriously, these people are hippies and weirdos." He looked at the Occupiers with obvious disgust. "You want conviction? Give me a reason, first."

"Pick your own cause," Magneto said stepping up to loom in front of the cat. "And if you can't do that then you have not been paying attention in class."

Bucky stepped forward threateningly. He couldn't really loom back from knee-level, but... well, maybe Magneto's feet felt loomed-upon.

"As you can see the people opposite of you are not very happy with your cause," Magneto said with a smirk. "And they are going to act against you in a... despicable fashion. Your assignment is to weather these actions. As much as you can. You may opt out of this assignment at any time. Though how that affects your grade is debatable."

Evan, over the past half a year, had grown to be a bit of a pro at ignoring what people were saying about him. And the fact that these ones were yelling about something as shallow as money... that made it easier. Evan continued holding his sign, quite content to ignore any slurs that were thrown his way.

Cassidy wasn't going to complain, but she did have questions.

"Professor?" Her voice was quiet and respectful. "I don't understand. What is the point of not defending ourselves and not fighting back if they were just going to lock us up in the end, any way?"
