Although

no student has ever had the gall to call your humble Professor and host agargoyle to his face, one can’t help but wonder what they say behind the teacher’sback!  But, do these students know,actually, what a gargoyle is and what it does??  And, do any of my students at home know what apotropaicmeans (the ones in this class didn’t!)? Your humble professor is always generous with his time and knowledge,but just how charitable are Americans?? (You can prove how charitable you areby noticing the “donate” button on our website!).  Though the mental prowess in this class is high, who willstand out as the best of the rest and earn the coveted classroom prize, TheGolden Banana?
