The cartoon is two panels stacked vertically. The top panel shows a teacher talking to a professor. Above the teacher's heads is a thought bubble that shows an aggressive student trying to punch the teacher. The teacher says, "Yo, Doc! What intervention should I use when one of the guys loses it and tries to punch me in the head?" In the lower panel it shows the professor with a thought bubble above his head. It shows the teacher ducking and the a guy throwing a punch that misses his head. The professor says, "My expert opinion would be to duck!" The tag line reads, "Experts get big bucks for consultation to remind folks that 'Intervention' can be effective only before a crisis occurs." The tag line on the left side reads, "Inspired by Ted Carr."
