I feel a teensy bit sorry for my Elders today; the homework I'm turning in today is a multi-page spreadsheet analysis. Which is probably a *bit* more than the actual assignment called for.
Speaking as a teacher of the Craft, I would much rather have someone who complusively does too much as a student than students like the all-to-real student I once had who looked at a copy of Robin Wood's When, Why, If, and said:
"You don't seriously expect me to read that whole book, do you?"
Oh shit. We have the occasional hold out who doesn't do their homework, but what typically happens in my case (like today) is that they adore the extra work I did and ask me to expand on it.
