What if the student has read too much Borges and did this on purpose?

Ok that's awesome.

I dream of this student.

In many years of teaching Latin American Literature I don't believe my mother ever had such a student....

I dream of this student.

Maybe the student is dreaming that you're dreaming...

Well, you could see whether you're vulnerable to fire.  If not, then yes, you're probably a dream that the student is having.  Which would be a disturbing thought.

Now if you dream that you're a butterfly, that raises a whole different conundrum.

it's utterly wrong. It also does ignore a lot of what's gone on in the course, as we've talked at length about how The Wide Sargasso Sea is a response to the original novel. I gather she was napping for those parts.

Wrong is wrong. Napping is napping. F.

Agreed. I hope that a smart student does not receive any special consideration because the student is smart.
