Synopsis for "Higher Learning"

The members of Gen 13 get ready for their first day of classes at the University of California-San Diego (UCSD) while Lynch watches a news report about disappearing college students.  Anna drops the team off on campus, and they immediately begin to socialize with their new classmates: Roxy makes a friend on the way to film class; two sorority sisters decide to recruit Caitlin; Grunge pledges at the Delta Iota Kappa fraternity; Bobby befriends Melissa, a fellow musician, at the campus coffeehouse; Sarah joins an animal rights protest on the quad. Later, Caitlin is surprised when Grunge joins her in neurology class and again when he demonstrates his photographic memory.  In Gamorra, mercenaries try to learn the whereabouts of Alex Fairchild.  At the end of the day, Gen 13 regroups and returns home where they debate the subject of animal rights over dinner.  That night, their fellow student Lisa Crane is kidnapped from campus and taken to a secret laboratory for use as a test subject with the other abductees.

Notes

• The subplot about students being abducted and used as experimental test subjects is never followed up on or resolved.
