I think if that happened during an attendant interview I was part of, it would make services a moot point because the shock would kill me. I loved watching KO get all impressed by Sexy Violinist and her...instrument. I don't know why I love seeing his inner fanboy so much, but sometimes it's so much easier to get next to than his Outer Cornell. He was seriously awed by that Strativarius and by the fact that, when she touched it, beautiful sounds came out...in a tiny way, it reminded me of when Cronkite did a rocket story and said "Golly!"(Which he thought sounded stupid, but was honest human emotion, imo.)
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I have two students who missed a quiz without giving me advance notice. My general rule is no makeup quizzes unless you've told me about your absence ahead of time and I've OKed it. Each of these two asked me if they could take a makeup. The quiz was on Monday, and I had OKed both of them to miss the previous Friday because they were sick, so I said OK, and we scheduled a time for them to come to my office to take the quiz. Neither one showed up.
There are stencils out there if you google. I just looked at an example and freehanded it - it was easier than I thought.
Dana - we started FY2011 in July!
Neither one showed up.
Sucks to be them, pity about the grade.

Seriously. Sounds like two zeroes to me.
Neither one showed up.I agree. Two no-shows, TWICE! Sounds like two zeros to me. When I was a guest instructor, I had 8 classes to teach all of audio for theater AND get them "designing" a scene, including editing of sound cues. Talk about 0-100mph in 10 seconds! So I put forth that there might be pop quizzes at random. Short things that count as 100% of your daily participation grade for the day. When the class was half empty (Monday morning)... Pop Quiz time! dudes, suck it up. I commuted 2 hours to get there by 9am. You can walk across campus to meet me there. Yes, I can be mean.
Yeah, I'm not giving second chances at makeup quizzes.
Short of traction, yeah. Goose Egg.
Srsly. Zero on the makeup, and if you're lucky they walk away with a wee lesson on "an appointment is actually an appointment and not just a suggestion to drop by any time".
No guarantees on that one: plenty of faculty still haven't managed it. But it's nice to dream.
