A. is a twenty-two year old graduate student that Richard sees while roaming the halls of the Center. She has just recently taken the literature masters comprehensive test and she is selected by Richard to be the opponent of Helen in the final test. She loves teaching, theory, and discussion, but also recognizes that it will be a struggle for her to pay the bills as a literature major.

She is currently engaged in a relationship and has thought about taking a job in business to keep herself afloat. A. is fierce about theory and new movements in literature, including the dismantling of old ideas and structures. She remains optimistic about life and love despite the harshness and cruelty of the world.
