How to use "Dissension" in context?
The dissension was palpable in the air, like an electrical storm just before it arrives. Heads were nodding in agreement, while the others spoke, their words punctuated by the occasional cough or chuckle. It was all too much for one freshman, stuck in the middle, and she couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes scanned the room for an escape and came to rest on the most disinterested person in the bunch. It was her tutor, the one person she thought she could count on to help her through this difficult material. But the tutor wasn't paying her any attention, his eyes glued to the chalkboard in front of him.
