This story was told to me by my older brother. He said that his friend's bible study teacher graduated from Harvard University. So... the teacher was talking about his University stories. One day, his professor wanted people to write an essay about what a "Courage" is. It seems like a simple easy subject but when it comes to thinking, its a very hard topic. He really didn't know what to write so he just stayed completely blank while other people were furiously using their led on 10 pages. It was time to turn in the essay. He didn't write anything until now. Right before turning the paper in, he wrote one sentence. Next day or few days later, everyone got their paper and grades. What do you know? He got an "A+".

The sentence he wrote was..

"This is courage."

Very amazing. I think this person got some balls. I wouldn't want to do that in normal schools though. They stick to the rules. hehe.

This is a very close to the story that was told about some stupid humanities course. The instructor did not want to grade papers at the end of the term and came up with this question for a SA. "Why?" The only answer that got an "A" was "Because". I was told the instructor went on to become a Dean. How stupid is this....
