From time to time I've let ya'll know some of the goings on in my classes. Here's the jist of a mail I received this summer:

She went on a cruise that consumed 8 days on a ship that did not have internet access. Since the class was an internet class, she kind of had to have internet access. Of course, she didn't check to make sure that the ship had internet access. She ended up failing to submit 4 of 8 assignments.
