Morgan's Computer

Please log in to view the image

I enter President Morgan's office and close the door behind me, not wanting to be disturbed. With a sense of urgency, I head directly to the desk, where I start going through the drawers, my fingers sifting through the clutter. I proceed to rummage through the drawers with an air of determination.

I am seeking answers, and I hope that I'll find them in this desk. I sort through the papers, notes, and trinkets, my fingers sifting through the clutter with an unwavering, searching touch. I spot a post-it note which seems to bear a login and password.

I grasp the post-it, glancing around the room one final time. I find nothing else that appears to be relevant, so I turn on the computer, my eyes fixed on the screen. Feeling satisfied that I've covered everything, my hands tremble slightly as I type in the login and password from the post-it note.

I wait with anticipation to see if the computer will grant me access. As the computer welcomes me, I navigate to the browser and open the history tab. A list of recently visited sites scrolls across the screen. I recognize some usual academic sites, but see nothing out of the ordinary.

I open Outlook, where I scan through the emails of Dr. Ava Morgan, the president of Williams Women's College. My eyes settle on a chain of emails exchanged between Morgan and York County Sheriff Donald Glanz. As I read the messages, my heartbeat quickens.

In these emails, Morgan explicitly requests that Sheriff Glanz keep the recent suicides in the area quiet, to prevent any negative impact on the college's reputation. The exchange shows a clear intent to cover up the truth and maintain the college's spotless image. I pull Lily's flash drive from my pocket and save the emails on it.

My mind races with this newfound information. The connection between the college, the suicides, and this cover-up is becoming increasingly evident. I can't help but feel anger and sadness for the students and families affected by these suicides. This discovery adds another piece to the puzzle.

As I continue to dig, I'm starting to piece together a web of deception and cover-up. The college, once a safe haven, now appears to harbor deep, dark secrets that I am determined to uncover. I vow to see this through for the sake of all those who suffered in silence, those who now remain in the shadows due to the actions of Dr. Morgan and Sheriff Glanz.
