@garyackerman In high school, I was once assigned a book report on a book so boring that it put me to sleep within a page or two. "Essays on the American Frontier" or something like that.
I gave up, wrote a bullshit report, and flipped through the book to cherry-pick some quotes I could use to support my made-up points.
I got an A.
Sometimes the students can tell when the teachers haven't done the reading either.
