It's bad enough that they're new recruits, but some of them are just... uncouth and too rough around the edges. Catherine is looking forward to seeing how the program shapes them, though, weeds some of them out and makes the rest into Rangers, potential heroes, the hope of all humanity.
She's been watching the interviews, observing and noting the quirks and strengths of each student's personality, making sure she'll be able to give strong and valuable input to each one. After all, part of her job is making suggestions on their training, little adjustments and broad views of what they need to succeed, to become viable candidates who aren't just kids or greenhorns.
Each cadet she observed, she'll walk up to in turn and address by their name--how does she know them already? And she looks mildly disappointed. "What does the fox say?" got precisely zero answers that gave her any faith in them whatsoever. Correct answers were, in fact, the worst choice, in her mind.
"I'm Dr. Catherine Halsey. I'll be one of your teachers as well as an assistant in your training. If you have any questions, now is precisely the time to ask. Otherwise, I'll be unavailable except during specified hours."
