Zero doubt it's a homework/finals Q:
1. OP joined this month and only posted on this thread, no others.
2. Obvious wording of original Q.
3. UGs I know say "prove," not "support."
4. It's finals/ term paper time.
I haven't bothered to do a lit search on this topic, and this is purely anecdotal, but the amazing scope and variety of lies* I've had to endure from undergrads leads me to suspect that creativity is sumthin' everybody's got, to one degree or another. In fact, they seem eager to apply their creativity around exam time or when projects are due. "I couldn't do the assignment because I was locked out of my apartment for two and a half weeks" comes to mind, as does, "I didn't know I had to come to class because you didn't tell me I needed to."
*A friend of mine took a language class with UGs, and because she looks young they must have assumed she was one of 'em, because according to her, they spent most of their time boasting about how stupid their profs and TAs were for believing their lies and excuses...
