Overview

Is this you? Or someone you know? 18, leaving your small town for a big University. Not sure how to pay tuition. Excited about meeting new people from around the country. Scared you won't measure up. Loving your parents, but excited about being free to live your own life. Kaitlyn is that girl. At college, she makes nine new friends. This is the story of Kaitlyn and her friends - the Fire Pit Cell. It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. It was their Freshman Year. What would you do in their place? Kaitlyn and her friends are a beautiful mosaic of modern America's many races, ethnicities, religions, classes, genders, and preferences. Their unique personal stories show their own strengths, skills, imperfections, and insecurities. Finding Their Way to the Light It's their time to win their place in the complex world we call America. They love, fight, share secrets, tailgate, bouncing back and forth between light and darkness, joy and panic attacks (all the normal Freshman joys and challenges) with their own unique brands of personal dignity. The Darkside While enjoying their Freedom pursuing their Happiness, they face their University's dark side - Dangerous Experiments performed on students. How far should we go to expand the boundaries of human scientific knowledge? How do we balance Freedom, Love and Science? Fighting Back Changes Them With no one else to turn to, they spend nights huddled around a fire pit planning to turn the tables on their tormentors. As they do, our ten students become Fire Pit Spirit warriors forging everlasting bonds to become the Fire Pit Cell. American Culture How do you feel about modern American culture? Like our vibrant culture, Dangerous Experiments has: things we love, troubling things, and things to think about before we know how we feel about them. Challenging Transitions College is one of many lifetime transitions. How we navigate transitions determines the success of our Pursuit of Happiness. Are you up to the challenge? Uniting to Struggle Brings Hope Prior generations cast aside petty squabbles to preserve the American dream in a cold cruel world. The Fire Pit Cell students overcoming adversity and growing from teenagers to young adults gives me hope for the future, a precious gift to nourish at every opportunity. Will you? Hyperlinks With hundreds of hyperlinks, the e-book version of Dangerous Experiments is also an anthology of music, movies, comedy, and articles that shape the complex society American college students face.
