At the end of class yesterday, one of my profs (we'll call him "Grampa Jack") related how when he first started teaching (years and years ago at Stanford), his wife was still attending the law school. Realizing how much of his meager professorial income was going toward her tuition, he asked the University to let her attend for free under the employee benefits plan.
The school informed him that the tuition benefit only applied to children, not spouses. Thereupon, he said, "Well, then, I suppose I'll just have to adopt her."
To this, they replied, "Do that and we'll have you arrested and fired for incest."
