And finally… case in ball-point

A law lecturer in Spain has told of how a student once tried to cheat in an exam by carving their notes into multiple ballpoint pens.

Malaga University lecturer Yolanda de Lucchi tweeted two images of what she says were the 11 pens that were taken from the student.

“Tidying up my office, I found this university relic that we confiscated from a student a few years ago,” she wrote in a tweet translated into English. “Criminal procedural law in bic pens. What art!”

One person said in response: “The level of being able to write like this on pens and such quantity. That’s hours and surely it helped him to study without wanting to.”
