Wow. I had no idea I was that stupid.

Note to self: in the future, when interviewing someone for a research paper, ask them what their last name is. You freaking idiot.

Hmm... if you don't have any way of contacting him/her, could you either make it up or say the person requested anonymity? Or just put an asterisk like name changed to protect identity? (And can you tell I have spent many years writing reports for the government? ;) )

hmm. i think it was "robinson." yep, it was definitely "robinson."

(though tyger's comment was way more ethical... listen to her, ok?)

I actually managed to find a list of students on the new Blackboard website, so it's all good. Thanks for the tips, though- I'll remember them if I ever find myself in a situation like this again.

You wouldn't happen to know how to cite an anonymous person MLA-style, would you?

You were the editor of a daily, Mom. You really should have more to say than just smartass comments.

Ooooooh, don't give out personal information on the intarwebz! I can stalk you now! Watch it, I'll be turning up at your house in the middle of the night and killing everyone because I am really a 50-year-old pervy guy posing as a teenage girl!
