The professor in my Asian History class opened the final exam with the following, aimed at a buddy seated next to me:
"Mr. Powers; I see you have an "A" going in this class. I have no doubt you are fully prepared to get another A in the final. I will enter that A in my notebook if you would please kindly help me protector the class during the test..."

... if you would please kindly help me protector the class during the test..."

Need some coffee right now?

PROCTOR: proc·tor n. A supervisor especially of an examination or dormitory in a school.

I got out of taking the final of my Molecular Genetics course (grad level course taken for undergrad credit) when I was the only one in class who had an example of translation control... “the Shine Delgano sequence”.

I thought the Proff was joking when he said I didn't have to take the final. But when I showed up for it he sent me home telling me the same thing he said to your friend; he knew I would get an A.
