Well here is another seasonal pun--and I think puns are mathematical by
nature.

What is it called when you have two sets of parents to visit on
Thanksgiving day and at the second one, you feel like you've been there
before? (Answer at the end.)

As far prepared, motivated students, I certainly have seen a change
here. More and more students think we owe them a grade for just showing
up most of the time and that they paid for the grade. I remind them
that they only paid half--that the taxpayers who want a quality product
paid for the other half.

Answer: De-ja-food
