It was finals week of fall term and the first final I was given was CIS 151. It started strong, and we were just minding our business....
Some time in to the exam, a bunch of us started getting server connection errors. Well how do we finish the final exam now?
I sent this tweet to Cisco (by the way follow me on Twitter):

In the end the final exam didn't count, but the final exam we gave ourselves was cooler anyway.
