Best professor, ever–of all time - Grimm_Wolfe - 11-22-2016 So I'm taking a criminal justice course at my university and today was the last class meeting before exams, only about a third of the class showed up today.  My professor did something amazing, which I will paraphrase: Dr. W:  Well, today's the last day of lecture before the exam, and only the best and brightest of you came today.  Because of that, I will punish the rest of the class who didn't show.  Now, how to do it? Class:  Study guide? Dr. W:  No, even if I could give out a study guide (against dept. policy), I'd have to give it to the whole class. Class: Oh... 5 extra credit points on the final? Dr. W:  No, that won't do.  *visibly starts pondering something for a couple of minutes* Class:  *Indistinct whispering* Dr. W:  I know what I'll do... Class: ō-ō Dr. W: I want you all to sign your name on a single sign-in sheet (he passes out two per class).  I was impressed with all of your groups' presentations this semester, it's not often I'm impressed to that level.  You all were go-getters and put in a lot of work into your presentations, so I'll make your final grade the same as your presentations' grades; you will not have to take the final.  Anyone who did not show up today and could not sign their name on the roll will have to take the final.

I did have one teacher who practically gave us a cheat sheet for our upcoming exams. Well, several.. I guess they really wanted us to do well.
