Here in Birmingham, this really has a lot of the locals shaken. Some of the biggest questions that we educators have are the following:

1) Why would her friends let her leave alone? What happened to the buddy system?
2) What chaperone, in their right mind, would leave a country without one of their charges? Can you imagine the phone call to those parents? "We're back from Aruba..and by the way, your daughter is not with us.."
3) What about room checks?

Unfortunately, many are inclined to believe that she probably met a guy or two, and went to meet them someplace for a drink after curfew. Should she have left her hotel room? Not without one of her friends.

The entire city of Mountain Brook, where she is from, has ribbons on their doors, hoping and praying for her return.
