There is this no nonsense, star faculty in the department where I did my undergrad.

Urban Legend in the department says that in one of the offerings of his classes, there was this smug student, who would chime in, and comment on the material being presented at every chance he got.

One day, while the faculty was presenting a particularly tough topic material to the class, the smug student raised his hand and asked, "Would it be OK if I ask a stupid question?"

The faculty looked at the student's face, grinned and said, "It is perfectly fine. After all, there is nothing such as stupid question." He paused for a bit, and then completed his sentence. "But there is only such a thing as stupid student."
