I fixed it for you! I once took a 1hr etiquette class in college to get my Junior level of hours after the first semester of my 2nd year in school. (I know you don't get anything for being a junior, but it seemed important at the time!) One of my sisters took the class with me and could not understand why she made a "D" in "etiqwet" (her original pronunciation!) I swear she only made it to class once every couple weeks.
