Dire Times in Sin City...

Hey, do any of you profs do this? Check it out:

After missing a week of classes for personal reasons, [Professor] Solomon returned to school and offered his students a refund on their tuition for the time he'd missed... what would happen if others around here [Las Vegas] started giving refunds for promised services they failed to render?

There would be a lot of lap dancers looking for work -- and a bunch of politicians, too. (As a rule, lap dancers are distinguishable from local politicians because they actually wear G-strings when customers flash the cash. Politicians, well, let's just say they aren't as modest.)

Fun, but beings up a saying of my dad's. An education is the only thing you're willing to pay good money for and not get.

paying for the diploma, not the lectures
