Case Study - The Student's Cartoon

A student is taking notes and "doodling" on a yellow note pad during a long lecture class.

He covers several pages with class notes and drawings, including one which portrays the classroom and a scene where an angry student jumps up and yells: "I can't take it anymore!"

The student in the cartoon is portrayed as firing a handgun at the boring professor.

At the end of the lecture, the student crumples up the picture and throws the drawing into the trashcan. However, another student who witnessed the "doodling" pulls the picture out of the trashcan and delivers it to the professor.
