Academia sometimes draws absolutely ridiculous people. That being said, you have NO IDEA just how crazy that professor's life could be outside the classroom. They seem a little haggard or distant on a particular day? Hopefully it's not like the one dude we read about in this list, who had his family being held hostage. Want a bit of a lighter read? Check out some of the most ridiculous questions students have asked their teachers over here.

Turkey, April 9 (UPI) -- More than 6,000 students at a Turkish university have signed a petition calling for a Jedi Temple on campus "to bring balance to the Force."
The Change.org petition, which had more than 6,000 signatures Thursday, was created by students at Dokuz Eylul University amid controversy stemming from an announcement last month from Istanbul Technical University rector Mehmet Karaca that his school would be getting a "landmark mosque" after a petition calling for a mosque on campus received nearly 200,000 signatures.
