Once there was a very bright student who was doing a great deal of scientific research, often working in Zabriskie late into the night. Her professor was very pleased with her work and gave her a lot of attention. This also pleased the student, until she found out he was stealing her work and publishing it as his own. One night while she was working, the professor came in. She confronted him with her knowledge of his theft. He panicked and stabbed her to death, leaving the knife embedded in her lifeless body. To this day, every now and then, if you study in Zabriskie very late, you may be approached by a student who asks you, "Would you please pull this knife out of my back?" (If you pull it out, she'll try to kill you with it).
