my guess is that the hesitation to let us use paper revolves around controlling cheating and to avoid leaking questions. your ideas of how to use paper while controlling for these?

I think it's criminal that scratch paper is not handed out for our weekly quizzes. NYUCD's reasons against scratch paper are a joke. (1) "Green" Campus- C'mon, each student prints out 2-3 lecture powerpoints a day, not to mention external study guides, etc. (2) "Copying Questions"- As Garrett pointed out, with our combined knowledge, we could probably recite the 10-15 questions without any paper. (3) "Cheating"- Have each student return their scratch paper w/ their ID (Like the biochem quiz we just had.). (4) Prepare us for our Boards- Even though our Boards will be on computer, scratch paper will still be handed out.
