In a major university during finals week:
In a large auditorium classroom that is full, students prepare to take a Calculus final. The professor is one of those professors you hate. He seems bothered by every question that every student has. As he begins to hand out the test, he informs the students that he will be eyeing everyone and anyone caught cheating will fail the test and consequently the class. He also informs them they have three hours to take the test, not a second longer. Again the consequence is failure. The students begin the test and as the minutes pass, the professor marks the time left on the board in front.
2 hours 30 minutes left
2 hours left
1 hour 30 minutes left
1 hour left
etc.
As each student finishes the test, the professor has each student place the tests in a stack on the table next to the podium at which he is standing. Every 20 test or so he walks over and neatly taps them, squaring them up in a nice, neat pile. He is quite the anal person. As the time winds down, the students are becoming frantic, at least the ones that aren't finished yet. They are frantic and rushing through their test, trying to get every last question answered, right or wrong. Sound familiar? As the time continues to wind down the professor is now marking by the fifteen minute mark.
45 minutes
30 minutes
15 minutes
As time expires the professor announces to the class that it is now time to hand in the tests, completed or not. He asks that they line up single file and handoff their tests one by one. The students comply, with the exception of one student. He is continuing on with the test. The fact that the professor has asked the class to turn in the tests has not phased him one bit. When the last student hands in the test, the professor notices that there is one student still in his seat finishing his test. Curiosity gets the best of him and he continues to wait for the student. 15 minutes pass. 45 minutes. 1 hour. An hour and a half after the test was considered "officially" over, the student goes to the front of the class to hand in his test. As he gets to the front of the class the professor is standing there by the podium. He greets the student and says, "I am sorry, but you have taken too long, you have failed the test and will have to repeat the course."
This does not phase the student. He just stands there. "Did you hear what I said? You have failed the class."
The student replies to this, "Do you know who I am?"
The professor a little miffed at the student's arrogance asks, "What do you mean?"
"Do you know who I am?", the student questions the professor again.
"I don't think I know what you're getting at."
"Do you know what my name is?" The student rephrases the question.
The professor now more than a little angry at this line of questioning says, "No, I do not, should I?"
The student looks at the professor and asks the question one more time, "I'll ask you one more time, DO-YOU-KNOW-WHAT-MY-NAME-IS?"
The professor replies, "NO-I-DO-NOT-KNOW-WHAT-YOUR-NAME-IS."
The student smiles and proceeds to split one of the stacks of tests, place his test in the middle of the stack, and knock all the tests onto the floor.
As he walks out of the class, he announces, "That's what I thought."
