minxyIt's the last day of finals for me! I have a week to grade these baddies, and then freeeeeeeeedom (until the research students turn up for summer internships... let's not go there.)
Here's the point, though: my students flash-mobbed their final today. Five minutes in, they hit the music, harlem shake it down, transition into a brief Brittney Spear's Toxic refrain, then settle in for the actual two hour exam.
It was hilarious. I decided to overlook the decidedly disruptive (and borderline dishonest, because where did those signs come from? They aren't supposed to have extra paper in an examwith little ammonia molecules on them! OMG so cute!) behavior, on account of how I was laughing too hard.
I understand there is video. I have made it clear that final grades are contingent on my acquisition of said video.
So that was my day. Yay summer. All the academics are probably surfacing about now, aren't we?
