School Meeting II

While the entire school was having a chaotic day—from students too distracted to focus in class, to teachers who weren't in the mood to teach, to the guards waiting in the rec room, and even the parents still reeling from the shocking expulsion of a student—someone else, far removed from the school, was dealing with an even bigger problem.

That person was none other than Switzerland's president, Frédéric Zeller.

Unlike many other world leaders, the president of Switzerland doesn't have an official residence. Instead, they live in their private homes, and on this particular day, Frédéric found himself hosting an impromptu crisis meeting right in his own house.

Seated in his home office, Frédéric was silently grateful that he had recently renovated the space to be larger—because now, he had six other people crammed inside. Each one of them was a member of the Swiss Federal Council, the very council Frédéric himself was part of before his presidency.
