This rather revolutionary act by Raiha Mahmoud has stunned her students. While some claimed that the post will help them with future assignments, others expressed their concerns regarding the question of how much critical thinking is being encouraged in the classroom.

The U-Maine C-M-J 2-3-6 Super Awesome Committee is planning to further address this issue during their meeting next Wednesday.
