Brandon McNair always wanted to be a teacher. When he was small he asked his mother if he could be a teacher when he grows up. Brandon had no idea why he wanted to be a teacher... there were no teachers in the family, or even in the family history.
Brandon has been sitting in the lobby of Highrise Hall for hours -- he and his luggage. He'd driven hours in blizzard conditions though the sky had been clear when he started out last night.
He sits patiently waiting to be processed into the men's dormitory of the prestigious teachers college he'd been accepted to. Brandon is no stranger to dormitory life... he grew up sleeping in the dining room of a once elegant, upscale railroad apartment overlooking a park.
There was no such thing as "Brandon's room" in the crowded McNair household. He shared the dining room with two brothers... 3 beds, 3 armoires, 3 small tables, and all the love in the world.
The dining room had an ornate, gas fireplace with a beautiful, green marble base and a huge window that flooded the room with light. The brothers could see forever from the lofty room. The sky was full of blimps, in those days -- You could see them until they were tiny specks on the horizon.
Brandon is a bright, humble young man from a large family who is leaving home and family for the first time to go away to college. His family pooled their finances to make sure he had a car to take with him.
As Brandon waits, the dorm administrators prepare a suitable room and roommate -- why they ultimately place a boy from New York City together with a boy from the Nevada desert is a mystery.
Timothy Dennis from Nevada listens to Glen Yarbrough sing... Brandon from New York listens to Charlie Parker play. They get on well enough. Brandon is studying to be an art teacher and Timothy, a math teacher. They have separate interests.
Brandon doesn't recall exactly when he first met Chris Charles but he ended up roommates with him after that 1st semester on campus. Chris is an exchange student from Central America... a very intelligence, very well liked, friendly guy.
They split the rent on a 2 bedroom apartment, walking distance from the school, and spend the next 3 years until graduation there. Chris was gone most time so Brandon and his girlfriend, Lorna, usually had the place to themselves.
Chris, Timothy, Brandon, Lorna, and most of the friends they'd made over the years donned cap & gown and graduated from the teachers college on a bright, beautiful, May afternoon... a brand new, fresh crop of teachers ready to take on the world.
