If a US penny has the letter "S" on it where did it come from?

And for the Pittsburg crowd, ask them

What was the Immaculate Conception?

If they even mention Franco Harris, fail them. Fail them hard. Fail them deep.

A lot of them will probably get that, they're the same as Trivia Crack

If it were hard and deep it wouldn't have been immaculate... :wink:

Would we get away with calling you Professor Erin?

*looks through squinted eyes* Maybe. Mayyyybe. I honestly don't deserve it to this point. It's honestly an earned title that comes with a doctorate degree, and generally tenure (but if you're assistant prof you'll get called it anyway).

Two part question:

1. If A squared plus B squared = C squared {Pythagorean theorem}, then A < C. Prove.
2. If A < C, why do you want an A in my class?

but seriously though ... if i were you i would present an ethical dilemma to your students ... those types of real world issues get creative thought and discussion going

so i would ask them "do any of you students in this class consider paying your teaching assistant for a better grade immoral or reprehensible behaviour?" ... you could ask with a heavy repetitive wink of the eye ... but not at the weird guy sitting front row

then boot up your laptop/ipad ( ... make sure its linked to the projector so it appears on the wall) to go over the pros and cons of this "issue" ... make sure your amazon wish list pops up
