Freaky Friday Imagine the horror of hearing your classmate moaning just as your professor is getting to the climax of a lecture. For Lindsay Jayne, a junior at the University of Miami, this nightmare was all too real. “We had just started our Zoom class when we started hearing some weird noises,” Jayne said. “I guess a girl had forgotten to turn her mic off and thought it was a good time to have sex.” After a few more minutes of mortifying grunting and groaning, the professor finally told the student she might want to save the hanky panky for a more appropriate time.
