...or so claim my students.
We're at midterms. A few things are guaranteed to happen.
1. Advisees will cry in my office. Daily.
2. Coworkers will beat the photo copier into submission. Daily.
3. Students will claim there is a Great Professor Conspiracy (GPC).
Oooo! A conspiracy, you say?
Didn't you know that all professors meet, pre-classes, to decide to put exams all on the same day? No? You didn't know that all professors not only meet to decide this, but actually ENJOY the pain that this inflicts upon their students?
Yeah. So this is what a small group of students claim every year. I'm sure you have some students that propose a similar GPC. ....right?

Mine complain earlier in the semester, as soon as they get their syllabus and become aware of the midterm conspiracy. They try to get me to change the exam date because of "orgo". I tell them to get their "orgo" professor to change his exam date, and they just laugh.
Agree with Namnezia--mine complain at the beginning of the semester, when they realize what their schedule will look like.
My most common complaint is actually "this exam was so much harder than last year's". I agree--exams are much harder when you don't have the answer key!
