Classes are over, and we are now in the midst of exam week. Isn't that fun? But in the interest of keeping sane as I stall on plow through my papers, I've continued my tradition of writing up drinking games for my profs every semester; you never know when some future Bryn Mawr student might be curious about the quirks and oddities of BMC's faculty and stumble upon my helpful guide. (Heh. Right.)
Take a sip of tea whenever:
Allen (International Politics)
...puts down Realism
...advertises his latest book
...talks on his cell phone in the back of the room
...calls on the other Caribbean people over students who have had their hand up for ten minutes
...draws an "amoeba diagram" on the board. Drink two sips if you have no idea what the hell he's doing
McWilliams (Foundations of American Political Thought)
...grunts
...wears an extremely short tie
...makes fun of Humvees
...describes a philosopher's ideas as "cute"
...mocks Republicans or Bush
...begins a sentence with, "If you're an intelligent human being and therefore a Democrat..." Drink two sips if the vocal Green Party activist in the class gets pissed.
Kasius (Probability & Statistics)
...tries to be funny
...inhales chalk and produces a high-pitched sneeze
...gets flustered. Drink the whole thing if he gets annoyed (rare!)
Saler (Age of Jefferson & Jackson)
...talks about Jefferson as if he's her next-door neighbor, in the present tense
...draws an incomprehensible map of the U.S. on the board
...plays devil's advocate
...is debated by Derek, who loves to be contrary for the sheer hell of it
...rhapsodizes about Massachusetts and New England
