Peter Knipp
From CNUpedia, an IEEE Innovation.
Dr. Peter Knipp is an associate professor in the Department of Physics, Computer Science, and Engineering. He teaches physics classes, and is somewhat feared for the dreadful power that he has to "Knipp" someone. He is also said to be the source for the webassign problems used by the Department. He is a good source of humour at the expense of both him and his students.
A definition might help. It should be taken in good humour, as though he were a force of nature free of the qualms of human morality.
Knipped
v. Knipped, to be Knipped, getting Knipped
- The process of being academically humiliated, emotionally scarred and psychologically damaged as a result of enrolling in a course taught by Dr. Knipp.
- The act of having one's ass handed back to one via a physics course.
- The realization that no matter how good your excuse (aliens invade earth, contracting ebola, you died and were re-animated as one of the undead), Dr. Knipp will still not let you redo an assignment (this often results in a student failing the course).
Quotes
- Extrapolation - It will impress people at cocktail parties.
