//Math Phys '15-'16 //Eric Lu is called to do an AP problem in front of the class, so Schafer reads it Schafer: (very quickly) A frictionless pendulum of length 3 m (mumble) 10 degrees (mumble) displacement, the potential energy (mumble mumble) 10 J. Whatisthe (mumble) kinetic energy (mumble) its potential energy is 5 J? Phew! Eric Lu will now say one word. Eric: B? Schafer: Excellent! You have now received full credit on that problem.

//Discussing Skype with Finnish students for a new MathPhys field trip Schafer: The Finns will arrange their students to stay a little after school, and you guys will come a little before school. The time difference just works out, you get a little face time, and you realize, "Oh, he's a tall white boy."

Admin: If you don't want to do the work, I can't help you. //later in Math Phys Admin: We already interrupted Navarro's class, which was filled with just like 15 stupid sophomores. Schafer: Why did you use a redundancy there?

//Talking in Mathphys Schafer: Yeah, so, this weekend I was out shopping to get model rockets for my nephew. I kind of add 3-5 years forward to whatever age he is, so I was thinking....he's 7, that's basically like 11, better get some rockets. Students: Whoa, what? Schafer: C'mon, everyone needs to have one questionable uncle like that. No one else fits the job better.
