Li and Bob, who know each other slightly, were assigned to share a locker. During the last few weeks, Bob has become increasingly irritated because Li leaves the locker messy and because she borrows his books without asking permission. Bob has tried to ignore the problem because Li has been helping him complete some science homework. Today, however, Bob went to the locker and found that his math book was missing again. He found Li in the hallway and started yelling at her. One thing led to another, and soon there was shoving and fighting.

By applying the steps in mediation, practice a peaceful resolution to this dispute.
