I was supposed to READ that?

Once a day, we receive an email listing the latest classified ads posted by students, faculty, and staff. In between grading final exams for my game theory class, I notice this ad:

Classified ad for textbook

“Totally new”?

When I give exams, I ask students to write their names on the back of the exam only. I prefer not to know whose exam I am grading. I guarantee that this policy benefited the student in question.

As for “never use,” I assume that this reflects poor grammar rather than an indictment of Dixit & Skeath.
