Top Ten Tips for Sign-Up Sheet Etiquette:
(By Bettyanne Bruin)

1. Make sure to never intentionally steal the pen that goes with the sign-up sheet.
2. Never jab the person next to you in his or her upper arm with the clip-board.
3. Sign only one name at a time, and only for the person who is truly in attendance.
4. Be careful not to make so much noise shuffling through all of the sign-up sheets that people become distracted by your actions.
5. Never erase another person’s name to put your name in that person’s place for an assignment you would rather have than the only one’s that's left available.
6. Never take the Sign-up sheet(s) home with you.
7. Never take the Sign-up sheet clipboard home with you, even though you think it’s cute and could really, really use it.
8. Never look at all of the other names on the list and match them up with the people in the room to find out who refused to sign the sign-up sheet.
9. Only sign your real name and not the name of a famous actor or actress.
10. Make sure to rotate the list around the room in the direction it has been going to avoid sending the entire classroom into complete, utter and nearly irreversible confusion.
