....one of my Sims (former teen townie) is head over heals with one of her teachers. Its the blond drama teacher. And he is just crazy about her as well. The romance wasn't suppose to happen btw. They two just decided they wanted to be together. I had nothing to do with it....


Probably because Drama Professors fall in love with everyone they meet, albeit it's one-sided. Not sure if it's because their sexual preference wasn't tempered with in SimPE i.e. no preference for either sex, so they are bisexual. Found myself going "Huh?? What the #@$%...?!!" when my YAs performed romantic interactions on their partners and the crazy professor rushed over to slap my YAs silly. Looked in SimPE subsequently and saw that she (it was a female, Aurora Chalmers) has a 100/100 + love for all my YAs even though they are not necessarily even friends with her. So, be careful no Drama Professors are on the lot if your YAs has set their heart on someone else.

Or feed the drama professor to the cowplant!

This happened to me too.  I was having a party and the next thing I knew one of my sims was getting slapped by her professor because she wanted to flirt with her boyfriend.  I was like, "what the?" because she wasn't in love with her professor.  That's when I looked at her professor with the mind control mirror and saw that she was in love with everyone already.  I thought that was weird.  I didn't know it was just drama professors though. 

The part about getting class performance from woohooing with your professors was in the Prima Guide, so any kid who has that should know.  Plus hanging around the BBS, I'm sure they'd find out sooner or later.  Then they would have to run try it.  The Prima Guide has a chart telling how much each activity gains in class performance per hour, and woohooing ranks up there with group research and going to class, but usually woohoo doesn't last a whole hour.  It's 50 points for each woohoo, and going to class is worth 100 points per hour.  Group reasearch with 4 sims is worth 105 per hour.  Doing an assignment is 90 per hour.  Is it worth it?  You do get grade points for each relationship point with the professor in your major, but you also lose grade points for each relationship lost.  Consider how much more quickly you can get your class performance bar filled by doing real coursework, especially with JM's College Rampage.  In about a day they have their performance bar topped off.

Kestran:
Yes. Exactly what rainbow says. I mean I have all my YAs do their term paper, get all their skills up to the level they are required to be in, and then alternate the rest of their time (in between friendship making with other YAs) between assignments and research. Then when there are maybe 12 or something hours till the finals they all hit the phones and either invite or talk to their teachers just for the final boost.

ZephyrZodiac:
I don't even allow the professors on the lots any more.  I get sick of how when the sim goes back to the neighbourhood and has been there for days and days, the darn professors have nothing better to do than keep phoning them up!  So now I concentrate my sims on making and keeping student friends, and keeping in touch with family and friends back home.
