Shooting In The Ivory TowerBefore presenting his thesis defense, Fredrick Davidson plants a gun in the first aid kit of one of the universitys science labs, preparing for whatever might lay ahead. Sweating and delusional, he watches the potential victims file in. When the defense is set to start, his thesis director, Dr. Liang, offers a quick, light hearted introduction but delusional Fred believes that the committee is purposefully mocking him. Enraged, he heads to the first

Before presenting his thesis defense, Fredrick Davidson plants a gun in the first-aid kit of one of the universitys science labs, preparing for whatever might lay ahead. Sweating and delusional, he watches the potential victims file in. When the defense is set to start, his thesis director, Dr. Liang, offers a quick, light-hearted introduction but delusional Fred believes that the committee is purposefully mocking him. Enraged, he heads to the first-aid kit and begins the rampage, eventually murdering three of his professors in cold blood. Based on true events, Professor Joseph Katz presents this horrible tragedy through his own eyes. In fact, his perspective is certainly unique: he was supposed to be in the room that day but was running late from a last-minute meeting one floor below. Shooting in the Ivory Tower chronicles this violent event through multiple perspectives and gives the reader insight into what led up to the murders, based on trial coverage and first-hand discussions with the victims and Davidson himself.

Nice to have a wider shoe! Nice color and seems to be good quality so far!
The fit ran a little bit small compared to Nike brand. Size chart at a shoe store I felt he needed a 1.5 (with room to grow still), ended up ordering a 2.5 which may have been a tiny big but works for his feet to grow. Love that it's wider. Cute color

Cute, durable kids' shoe at a great value
Size: 11.5 Big Kid, Color: Navy/Citron
These worked out great for our 5 year old with flat feet - he absolutely loves them, says they are very comfortable and help him "run FAST!" The colors look super cute, I'm very pleased with the durability over several months (particularly, the hook & loop closure has held up better than other brands we've tried...), and they seem to offer great support while not being too heavy. Highly recommend, and will buy again.

Durable Shoes
Size: 3.5 Little Kid, Color: Blue/Black
Most brands have scuffed toe pads or poor quality Velcro. My boys go through 3-4 pairs of shoes a year. Our family loves saucony for the quality, comfort and durability.

Great shoes
Great shoes, but definitely designed for narrow feet! if your child has wide feet,i recommend choosing a different style as these run very, very narrow.

Great colors!! Love the soles are not white. Good price
Size: 10.5 Big Kid, Color: Navy/Citron
Held up better than expected. So far only keens had held up to my son's play. Update-- after 2 months of wear the sole began to peel off/separate at the front of toe of shoe where that " upwards tab" is located.
