There are no stupid questions
Today in Game Theory, our professor asked us to ponder over the reason why professors gave people bad grades. When we could come up no answer that would satisfy him (in terms of the self-interest of the professor, assuming he doesn't care about students). He replied:
"I like you guys.... you guys are smart, but you have some dumb friends... and if I started giving you all good grades, you'd tell your dumb friends, "Hey! Kendall is giving out good grades!" and then they'd be in my class!"
I'm going to miss the Clemson Economics faculty.
