Thread: Early Vacation

So, my old advisor just got an email from a student. The student stated he was planning on taking an early summer vacation and was wondering when the exams would be. Those happen to be on the Syllabus. My advisor is currently looking for the best possible troll answer to give. (He won't actually give it. He is the head of two departments.) My suggestion was to offer a take home exam that would be the same as one the doctoral physics candidates would take since "he is also planning an early vacation". I also suggested no curve.

My more serious answer was to tell him the drop dates.

Lol... Early vacation. The nerve of some students... I helped teach a class a few semesters ago and a student pulled out a $20 and asked if I would just give him full points so he could leave, for something I was literally in the process of teaching him how to do. I was like "you can leave if you want to, but you're still getting a zero"
