After an arduous shopping period, Professor Mike Bean has decided to let all 50 people off the waitlist for his 12-person upper-level Literary Arts seminar.
“How could I say no to all those wonderful and intelligent students who want to take my course?” said Professor Bean, who now had to moderate his student-led discussions in Salomon DECI. “Each one of those students went through the trouble of sending me an email and requesting an override code on C@B. After all that, it would be cruel to turn them down. I know that this course is capped at 12 for a reason, and that technically freshman and sophomores shouldn’t be able to take it because of the extensive pre-requisites, but I think it’s okay to make exceptions every once in a while.”
“It’s okay if I have to dedicate five whole classes to critique and read every student’s final 30-page fiction assignment,” continued Bean who was in the process of tripling his office hours. “I just couldn’t bear to see a single student miss out on a class that they’re passionate about.”
At press time, every single student dropped the course after Bean announced weekly 500-word discussion posts.
