I love Caulfield and wish I had had a student like him when I was teaching. But then, what about the other students in class? Especially those who need the class to learn?
Had twin students who ‘whipsawed’ discussions with empty questions until all relevance faded, just to run out class time. They thought they were being cute and smart. Other students – and I – thought they each had one half of an average IQ.
But, eventually, Caulfield will reach a level where stall techniques will have become so wide spread that his draws no attention from either instructor or classmates.
Even though Caulfield was attempting to waste and divert classroom time today (as he typically does)….. this effort at least…. was pretty good as a saying goes… actually good advice.
@STOP, I can’t help but sensing a tinge of condescension on your reference to Frazz, By the way “Jaitor” I deduct you meant “Janitor” which is now an obsolete term even if still used in these comic’s pages, Going back to Frazz, I have learned lots from The Building Maintenance Engineer which is now the term the rigueur and very appropo, Go to go now, Bye!

That’s actually very good advice, especially if you’re in sports.
I’ll need to remember that one for my next sabre class.
