The modified Mike is to smack the student all sudden like and be like 'well what did you think of that, huh?'

Not so sure on the ethics of the Mike/mod-Mike grading procedure. Sometimes a student who sucked suddenly gets it, and aces the final. Or a student who knew it all along has a head cold and a bad test taking day. Maybe your students up there are different, but the kids down here were obsessive grade computers.

But whatever- congratulations on getting the masters! What a big ass relief. We'll celebrate when you're down in a few weeks.
