I ran into the Canadian folk superstars Spirit of the West and ended up spending the whole night hanging out with them across Montreal, taking in the sights and ending it with 5am poutine. I had a discussion paper due the next morning in my cultural studies Film class. I told him the truth: ‘I spent the night hanging out with SOTW and don't have my paper. Can I bring it tomorrow?’ He said yes!” Want to read the “best” excuses that students have actually used on their college professors, from the professors themselves?
