<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">For years, University of Toronto Professor Doug Hutchinson smoked pot in his office. Sometimes he'd hide behind garbage dumpsters or even climb trees to use the drug, which he said he needs to alleviate the pain from an undisclosed medical condition. Now he's out of the closet and in the basement of the university's Trinity College, where he can finally smoke in peace and without recrimination ? all with the blessing of U of T. "It's a beautiful solution," Hutchinson said yesterday, at the end of a messy year-long battle with college officials. It's also rekindled in him the fire to fight what he calls complicated and often-contradictory laws governing the use of marijuana in Canada by those who use it both medically and recreationally. "I'm feeling lighter," said Hutchinson, 50, who teaches ancient Greek philosophy and specializes in the works of Plato. "It was burdensome being in the closet." On any given day, between classes and students, he smoked up to 10 joints a day, or roughly an ounce of marijuana a week. But Hutchinson got busted late last year after someone complained about the smell coming from his second-floor office, which overlooks the quadrangle of Trinity College. "The first reaction (from college officials) was this has to stop, and I said, `No, this doesn't have to stop,'" he said. "They tried to get me to admit to past offences and swear never to offend again," he said.</div> http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentSe...72154&t=TS_Home lol, he taught my first year philosophy course too. 10 joints a day!
Lol. Reminds me of last month when some crazy bastard was screaming racist comments on the bus then smoked a bowl of weed under his shirt right there on the bus. Good times...
That is some funny stuff, ut i'm not really suprised at all. I know of at least 5 teachers I've had in the past that smoke pot.
not shocking- a prof that taught me ethnic and race relations about 3 years ago named patrica landlot complained that all she could smell in her apt. full of profs. was the pot aroma, yet the cops were not executing any early morning raids. she was complaining of selective police of course, anyways brings light to the laid back lifestyles of profs.
pot + philosophy = true. I wanna try it sometimes, my course keeps getting more difficult, I probably have to do it if I'm going for the A grade.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">Well, try listening to the teacher instead of talking with other people in class first If that doesn't work, then smoke some</div> Philosophy, DEAR Bahir, isn't about listening to a goddamn teacher trying to teach you something off a book. Philosophy is personal and something you should create. ...NOT copy it off the internet... <cough> pointing @ Bahir (known cheater) <cough>..

I've never stolen texts from the internet and copied them to any of my schoolworks (unlike you (for example the essay in Swedish that you took from a basketball site)). Anyway, sure, blaze it up, but it's not going to get you any A's.
