A Professor walks into a classroom at Mt. Holyoke. "Good morning, class," he says. "Good morning, Professor," the class responds.

The next day the same professor walks into a classroom at Hampshire. "Good morning, class," he says. The class responds, "Is it really?"

The next day the professor walks into a classroom at Smith. "Good morning, class," he says. The class writes it down.

Wrapping up the 5-College circuit, on the fifth day the professor walks into a classroom at UMass. "Good morning, class," he says. Several hands shoot up at once. The professor calls on a young man in the back who seems particularly desperate to speak. The young man asks timidly, "Professor, is that going to be on the exam?"
