Stupid Question Hall of Fame: The Week of 02/02

The Stupid Question Hall of Fame is back again, ready to embarrass the kids who cheapen your degree. Remember the rules – If you send in the absolute stupidest, you get a free BustedTee. Read all five and cast your vote. And, if you heard something stupid in class this week, send it to me at CollegeHumor.com/StupidQuestions.

  At the start of the class, we were discussing the inauguration and, of course, there’s always one in each class…
  
  Genius: So is Inauguration Day always right after Martin Luther King day or did they only do that ‘cause Obama’s black?

  Professor: The New Deal was an example of economic and social regulations. Can anyone tell me what the New Deal was?

  Professor: No, that was the Louisiana Purchase.

  Upon hearing the professor explain that a Chinese man died for every mile of Canadian Pacific Railway constructed…
  
  Einstein: Why did they die every mile? Like, what was going on there?
