Well, this might be buried in some other thread title, but I post it again here:

My question is, has anyone put an Easter Egg into your syllabus, too? And had it found/not found?
I did, putting a completely wacko word in a sentence and wondering if anyone would ask me, "What's that all about?" None did. Either not read, or too uncertain that it would be a good idea to bring it up to the professor with the shaved head.
I'll have to admit to being a syllabus-skimmer at best as a student, so it's not impossible that I missed a few gems. Or I would have had tunnel-vision about it--if it didn't seem to have a direct bearing on what was due, when it was due, and how many points it was worth, I'd be likely to bleep over it. I wonder if I can re-train myself a bit.
Two of us have posted it, you're number 3....

Should we hide 50.00 and post the clues in one of the fora threads that everyone skims...

At my wife's suggestion, I put all kinds of Easter Eggs in my MP4s for my asynchronous online classes. I can always tell who actually watched my "lectures" when I get my hidden assignments.
