He assumed...something he does often.

And of course...the students were suppose to challenge the profs or the other students to a duel.

I've been to Europe as a tourist and on business. Never been treated anything but gracious. University enviornments are different. I could not afford to travel to Europe when I was a student. They tend (both here and abroad) to be more radical - to see things in black or white with no gray.

So tell me...I don't have a platinum credit card - not even a gold one (silly waste of money in my opinion...) what is the difference between a student and a tourist? Is this from your personal experience or another assumption? And how much is a arseful?
