My wife went to the University of Illinois, back in the late '80's. She went while in her mid '30's, and had a different outlook on education than many of the young people in her classes.

In one of her English classes, there was a classmate named Marcus Liberty. Marcus was an All-American basketball player for the Illini, and was a member of the 1989 Final Four Illini team...an awesome team, that had Kendall Gill, and Nick Anderson. Great players.

Anyhoo, this dip**** Liberty NEVER showed up for classes, and the teacher told the class that she, personally, was going to get him academically ineligable.

At the end of the semester, Marcus passes, and she gets a promotion to Department Chair...

How do I know this? My wife came home one day, and asked who the **** was this Marcus Liberty, and why did he have such influence on the university?

Heh heh heh. True. Every word.
