Bring the professor newspaper clippings dealing with his subject. If you can’t find clippings at ran dom. He thinks evrything deals with his subject. 2. Look alert, Take-notes eagerly. If you look at your watch, don’t stare at it unbelievably and shake it. 3. Nod ^requ'ntly and murmur, "how true." To you, this seems exaggera ted, To him, it’s quite objective. 4. Sit in front, near him. (Ap plies only i-f you ' intend' to..stay i awake,) 5. La ugh at his jokes. You can tell; if he looks up from his notes and smiles expectantly, he has told j a joke. i 6. Ask for outside reading. You j don’t have to read it. Just ask for it 7. If you must sleep, arrange to be ca lied at the end of 4 he hour. It creates an unfavorable impression if the rest of the class has left and you j sit there alone, dozing. 8. Be sure the book you read during < the lecture looks like a book from the j course. If you do math in psychology class and psychology in math class, match the books for size and color. 9. Ask questions you think he can answer.
