I kid you not, I once had a student who was a graduate of a very prestigious Houston high school, who was Greek (in one of the "top tier" fraternities), and who had attended I think only 4-5 sessions of the class I was TAing the entire semester.
He then proceeded to try to get me to raise his grade by saying that we had mutual acquaintances from W&L. And kept going on about how he didn't get into W&L. And complimenting me, W&L, and my sorority (he asked which sorority I'd been in).
LOL. What a trip!
ETA: Do y'all seriously fly to Lubbock? That's crazy! It's not THAT far...
