The new know-nothing party

Beware of advisees bearing Add/Drop slips, for they know not what they know not:


  
I want to switch to a different section of freshman comp.

Which section are you in now?

I don't know.

Who's the professor?

I don't know.

What time does it meet?

Um, sometime in the morning.

Why do you want to switch?

[Shrug. Blank look.]

There's room in the 11:00 section. Will that conflict with your other classes?

I don't know.

Well why don't you come back when you know something?

(Except I didn't really say that last bit. Wish I had.)
