Exclusive Interview: Stephen Barrows

Exclusive Interview with the college professor pranked by student at Aquinas College

[@ms.cellaneous7458]

The prank was hilarious. This professor seems like a really great guy. What struck me, as an older gal, is when he asked the students to not put it on the internet and they didn't until he gave them the go ahead. He respects the students and they obviously respect him. My oh my, how things have changed in the last 7 years.

Props to the guy that called in and acted like he was from the clinic! He didn’t falter or stammer either.

[@user-ql9wd7gn6k]

This only shows the love and respect they have for this teacher, and how comfortable they are in his class. What a wonderful teacher!

[@skippyoz3366]

I can't believe he wasn't asked the obvious question- did he keep the same policy!!!

[@PCTL1972]

What an amazing teacher. Such a great prank and he has a great sense of humour

[@haaaveyoumettedHL]

Very cool professor. The way he looked at the interviewer when he had trouble finishing the question at the end was so encouraging

[@mattsdpell5029]

Good point

[@kidwave1]

Brilliant prank! He was mortified! It looked like he was not only questioning his cell phone policy, but every decision he had ever made! lololol

[@erudite60]

He should feel proud, only loved & respected teachers get pranked.

[@graceandmarvellouswonders6249]

[@petesmith3510]

A great prank where no feelings was hurt and the teacher saw the funny side,the students obviously have a lot of respect for him

[@angelfishluva291]

[@carolynthornton8017]

IN MY VIEW Besides being the funniest prank I have ever seen between a teacher and their students, I also sensed that the relationship between this professor and his students is wonderful.

[@tiagomartinho77]

This how all teachers should be, i bet he takes pride in his work and students love his classes

[@benjamincollins8559]

I'm glad this college professor gave the go ahead to you tube, school is about having fun and learning new things. Very well done

[@Namtov]

Thats was a really good prank. I still laugh at this one

[@techGaloree]

I can tell u for free that not putting it up on the internet would have deprived the world of a great and splendid piece. The whole beauty of this is that it wasn't staged. Your approach prof, absolutely immaculate.

Opportunies comes daily but many are scared of embracing it due to the high rate of fraud and scams. Let's be reminded that each opportunity we let go carried a change for a life time.

You are an awesome "sport" professor! I hope all involved got some $$, too. I'm still drying my laughing "tears". Priceless.

[@johndickinson1605]

He didn't come right out and say it , but I am sure he was mortified and his first thoughts were about being sued and losing his job. But I'm not commenting to be a hater because what I think this video truly shows is respect and thanks. This prank was pulled off because the class wasn't worried about retribution and the fact they planned it and pulled it off indicates that they love you as a teaching professional. This wouldn't have happened if they hated you or your class and I wish there were more teachers and professors like you. Kudos to you and your genius pranksters.
