Some moments reveal character. Like when a bug falls from the ceiling and lands on a student’s desk.

Consider the student who calmly picked up the bug and took it out of the classroom without calling any extra attention to herself. This moment reveals her poise and leadership. 

Or consider me, who heard the squeals, saw the bug, and said, “What’s that? Something needs killin’?" 

Actually, let’s not think about what that reveals.
