For those of you who have taken Chem 112B and/or who have heard of Richmond Sarpong (or MaryAnn Robak), here’s a “Wittig dance” he showed us this morning… via some intermediates.

Someone had heard that he’d dance if you asked him to, and that person scribbled “Dr Sarpong, so you think you can dance?” on the board before the start of class. He promised he’d dance if 95% of us stayed awake through his lecture (which IMO isn’t very difficult because you’re always frantically copying). I say this was a cop-out!
