Quotes from the First Week at School
Let me tell you about a few preliminary things, before we get to the fun stuff. At CCC we have a vice president of Student Affairs - Dr.Hodges. Over the break he grew a goatee. Some guys were talking about it and said he bears an uncanny resemblance to Count Duku (for the non-Star Wars fan, he's the villain in Episode II). So when he got up to speak in chapel on Tuesday, a guy told me he thought to himself: "Someone get that man a cape!" I wasn't sure how to react...I thought it was really funny, but then in a way, I was ashamed that I got the joke! Oh, well. I'm a nerd, it's official.Now, the following section will be a lengthy set of quotes (or something close to that) from my history professor, Dr.Wiggins. This is not meant to be disrespectful, but he does say these things, and he is hilarious. He's brilliant, and just a really sweet gentleman. He took his hat off when he was talking to me this morning, and that's just the tip of the iceberg. I love his classes. Ok, so without further ado, quotes from Dr.Wiggins:
"I'm starting a new religion. 2nd day adventists so we can have Mondays off. You always need an edge when you're starting a new religion."
"My style of teaching...if you want to call it that..."
"I get marked down for being sarcastic."
"...wad up a piece of paper and throw it at me."
"What do Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter have in common? They're both Southern Baptists."
"What do Jimmy Carter and Stalin have in common? They're both born in Georgia."
"...these are the things you learn in state schools when you go to class and are sober."
" 'plutoed' - diminished in importance"
