There was a teacher at my high school who would mark a paper with diagonal yellow and black stripes and a big red F if she thought the student had used Cliffs Notes instead of reading the assignment.

There was a teacher at my high school who would mark a paper with diagonal yellow and black stripes and a big red F if she thought the student had used Cliffs Notes instead of reading the assignment.

My AP English teacher warned us against using Cliff Notes. Assignments and tests could not be passed without reading the actual book.
