Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for January 06, 2014
Transcript:
Mrs. Godfrey: "Welcome back from vacation, people! Did any of you make New Year's resolutions?" Gina: "I did!" Gina: "I resolved to devote even MORE time to my schoolwork!" Mrs. Godfrey: "WONDERFUL, Gina!" Mrs. Godfrey: "And what about YOU, Nate?" Nate: "I resolved to expose examples of blatant suck-upism whenever I find them." Nate: "Hey, LOOK! THERE'S one!" "Nate, come see me at my desk."

Sigh. If I was the teacher I would have told him to be quiet and sit down.

Mrs. Godfrey lacks consistency, and for that I am troubled by her. She wouldn’t give Nate his deserved A in geography, but she held him blameless in the water fountain incident. Maybe Lincoln Peirce is trying to be realistic when I am looking for an ideal, i.e. the perfect teacher as described by the teachers’ union.

Suck-upism? The word is “sycophancy,” Nate. Sure to get you an A from Miss Clarke, if not Mrs. Godfrey.

I knew a VP who was proud that he gave a student 254 detentions in two years. The kid never graduated and wound up pushing a broom at minimum wage. I still don’t know why the VP was so proud of that.
