Notes from the Classroom

Larry:
I've learned a few interesting things teaching university students in Russia:

1. Students come to the final who have never come to class. I guess a final is like throwing a great party, when more guests come than you expect.

2. Students who took my final in English don't necessarily understand English. This makes grading a breeze.

3. One handy cheating tip I learned from them is that if you tell the professor you need an English dictionary, you can then stuff a piece of paper in it with key points you will be tested on.
