The best future father in the world award goes to Jack!

Google status war!

Tara Hair's Gchat status: "To the person who spilled my soup in the refrigerator and left it there for me to find, you are awesome. =) You are also welcome to buy me lunch today."

Merritto Aho's Gchat Status:  "Re: Tara Hair's status - Dear person, I suspect you also took my tamale box out of my bag, took my tamale out of the box, and hid it in another area of the fridge. You truly are awesome. Thanks for not unwrapping the corn husk."

Three for the price of none

(After Mike McInelly derives an equation to solve a question)
Molly Biolo: You know Mike, you’re pretty smart.
Mike:  Ummm, thanks, I guess, but you sound pretty surprised?
Molly: Well, you’re just way smarter than you look.

(During the 6 hour drive back from the OB/HR rafting trip
Elizabeth Keeler (after some un-discernible comment, which led to some teasing): You know, my thoughts are just greater than your thoughts…

(While working on the accounting homework
Cecilia Yiu (on she really likes Accounting.):  I don’t know, I just really like putting things into baskets.
Mike McInelly: Then what the heck are you doing here!  You should be working the night shift at Wal-Mart stocking inventory!

Cases

Ray Kearney: Can anyone give me a summary of the case?
Brittany Riggs: Did you read the case?
Ray: Yeah, but that doesn't always help.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the true Josh Kruse

Professor: Mario, would you offer a prayer for us?    And you can offer it in Spanish if you'd like.

Josh Kruse:  And that's what we call, "Racial Profiling."

Al is smrt

Al Camargo:  I can't believe I'm planning my schedule for my last semester ever.  I still remember when it first started.

Jack Shirts, Chris DuBois, and Merritt Aho (at the same time):  I would hope so, it was only a year ago!  You're not that old...

Seems reasonable enough

From Professor's syllabus: "Late work will not be accepted unless you have just delivered triplets in the back seat of a taxi."

So THAT'S how that works

Updated with names...  names make it more fun (as long as no one gets embarassed!)

Within a group study session, Elizabeth Keeler to Austin Wilcox and Tyler Blackhurst about her days as a teacher:
"I had a Korean student who was from Korea ... that's why she was Korean."

The primary difference between MBAs and MPAs

MPA student to Professor: Next Wednesday is the United Day of Caring.  Morning classes are cancelled.
Other MPA student:  I think that is only for the MPA program.
Jay Hart: The MBA program doesn't actual care.

The Feeling Is Mutual

Professor to a student in class: "You are so far below junk, you don't even show up on the radar!  And not just you!  Everyone in this class!"

I would hate it too

Regarding the need for IT management:
 
Professor:  You can't have them (IT) blowing smoke up your Kimono
Ammon Chase (under his breath):  I hate that!

Professors have senses of humor as well

Professor:  Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit… but it's my favorite.

It's all in the name

TA: (calling role) Edgar Ramirez?
Edgar: It's Cheney. (to the class) I have 2 last names for those of you who didn't know.
Josh Kruse: His wife made him hyphenate

River Rafting Basics are not part of the MBA education

(Before the MBAMA rafting trip)

Jasmine Palmer:  So how do we get back to the buses?  Do we float down the river, stop for lunch, and then float back up the river to the buses?
