Do you know whether the comments on your latest paper were really written by your prof? Did s/he even glance at the thing? If it was a zoomancy paper, probably not, according to a tech in the Natural Magic Museum. “The museum catalogueing has fallen way behind since profs started making the brownie grade their essays,” said the tech, who wishes to remain anonymous for obvious reasons. “What’s more important — lightening some prof’s load or keeping one of the world’s premier magical research collections up to date?”
Blog staff could not find any Zoomancy faculty who would admit to having the Museum brownie grade their papers, though some defended the practice in the abstract. “Brownies live to work,” said Magister Ethel Brannigan. “I’m sure a brownie would give far better feedback than I do.”
What’s your opinion? Would you let a supernatural being grade your papers?
