Do You Know Who I Am?

It was the final examination for the freshman biology course at the local university.  The examination was two hours long and exam booklets were provided.  The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that wasn't on his desk in exactly two hours wouldn't be accepted and the student would fail. 

 

Thirty minutes into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for the exam booklet.  "You won't have time to finish this," the professor snapped as he handed the student a booklet.

 

"Yes, I will," the student replied.  He took a seat and began writing. 

 

After two hours the professor called for the exams, and the students filed up and handed them in - all except the late student, who continued writing.  An hour later, he came up to the professor, who was sitting at his desk preparing for his next class.  The student attempted to put his exam on the stack of exam booklets.  "I'm not going to accept that," said the professor.  "It's late."

"Do you know who I am?" asked the student.  "No, as a matter of fact, I don't," replied the professor with a tinge of sarcasm.

 

"Do you know who I am?" the student repeated

in a louder voice.  "No, and I don't care!" the angry professor shouted.

 

"Good," replied the student, who quickly lifted the stack of completed exams, stuffed his in the middle, and walked out of the room.

Boy that's an old one.  Karen: It's not so much initiative as it is Cheating and possibly hurting someone else's grade due to it (curve grading is standard procedure in college).

Cameron:  Putting all your information in a comment like that is spamming... also a form of "cheating" as per Active Rain Community Guidelines.
