The PC version of Portal 2 launched today. Obviously, there will be a drop in productivity in all sectors, and no reason to bother holding class. Geoff Pado's professor gave in. Link -via reddit
I have taught many a year and most students who ask for clemency of some sort are lying.
Those who are not lying offer proof of what they speak and professors would never be unsympathetic to a death in the family, for heaven's sake.
Besides, teachers know which students are honest and which aren't. It's always amazing that students never understand that teachers ''get'' you. They think they are faking us out. We are not stupid.
Hey, why don't you guys think about HIS copy of portal? Cancelling class would allow the prof to play as well. =D After, this time, there will probably be cake at the end...
in korea the day starcraft 2 came out most businesses were closed

one of my least favorite things about college professors is that they always assume their students are deceiving them. sometimes somebodies mother really does die and in that situation it is wholly inappropriate for a professor to doubt the given reason for their absence from a class that was a pointless waste of time anyway and shouldn't have even been required for that persons major because it has nothing to do with what that person studied.
