How about attendance scores?  That always drove me nuts.  You can spend
many more hours doing the assigned reading and homework and display
a thorough understanding of the subject matter by getting perfect scores
on all of the work and they penalize you 10% if you don't sit through an
hour of some teaching assistant who barely passed the class last year
stumbling through one or two of the sample problems out of the book.

I didn't have sudoku then, but at least I had crossword puzzles to
keep class from erasing my brain.
