Abhishek Gopalka (MBA'08, section 2): "Professor gets to answer and talk dirty to whoever is calling."

Punit Chiniwalla (MBA'08, section 6): "Your phone goes off in class -- your phone gets smashed to bits."

Devin Chasanoff, Rachel Lewis, Evan Azus, Jen Pollack, Andy Ecker, Lee Nussbaum (BBA'09): "Student has to answer and have the conversation -- on speakerphone."

Quanda Brown (MBA'09, Section 1): "A cash fine that goes towards drinks for a semester-end party; maybe $10. More if it's a Snoop Dogg ringtone or something."

Dana Erf (BBA'08): "A round of drinks at Rick's for the section. Mine has never gone off in class; I'm very careful to put it on silent."

Kaylin Connors (BBA'09): "Student has to bring hot chocolate for the whole class the next day. It's especially annoying when people let their phone ring and ring."
