Whose C is it?


Sally walks along a hall, carrying a piece of wire. She says, "A 'C'?"<BR><BR> Sally sits at her desk. She exclaims, "A 'C'? I got a 'C' on my coat-hanger sculpture?"<BR><BR> She frowns, examining the sculpture closely. "How could anyone get a 'C' in coat-hanger sculpture?"<BR><BR> Sally raisees her hand: "May I ask a question?" The coat hanger is on her desk.<BR><BR> She holds up her sculpture and declares, "Was I judged on the piece of sculpture itself? If so, is it not true that only time can judge a work of art?"<BR><BR> "Or was I judged on my talent? If so, is it right that I should be judged on a part of my life over which I have no control?"<BR><BR> She streches her arms and pronounces: "If I was judged on my effort, then I was judged unfairly, for I tried as hard as I could!"<BR><BR> "Was I judged on what I had learned about this project? If so, then were not you, my teacher, also being judged on your ability to transmit your knowledge to me? Are you willing to share my 'C'?"<BR><BR> She gazes at the coat hanger which she holds aloft. She says, "Perhaps I was being judged on the quality of the coat hanger itself out of which my creation was made..now, is this also not unfair?"<BR><BR> She declares, "Am I to be judged on the quality of coat hangers used by the dry cleaning establishment that returns our garments? Is that not the responsibility of my parents? Should they not share my 'C'?" PANEL 11: Sally leans back in her chair and smiles: "The squeaky wheel, gets the grease!"<BR><BR>
