College Letter

Illness has been spreading across the college campus where I attend classes.
While I waited for class to start earlier this week, I heard this exchange between two students a few rows back.

One:  I heard that one of the students that came down with mono usually sits at that desk.
Two:  What?!?  Why did you wait until after I sat down?  I can't get sick!  I can't miss any more classes! I gotta raise my GDP!

Really?  You need to raise your Gross Domestic Product?
Perhaps you mean your GPA, Grade Point Average?
Reminds me of the woman who wanted to pay her college intuition years back.
