Praise then darkness, and creation unfinished

Someone convince me that it would be a bad idea to, in response to someone who posted asking an LJ community to do his homework, and then defended himself by claiming he was "teaching his sociology class" about the subject, ask him whether Professors X and Y told their students to ask random strangers on the internet to do their homework instead of going to the library. (His LJ posts include a meme with his real name, and his "interests" make it clear what college he goes to. It's a small sociology department, and there's one class he could plausibly be taking. The largest uncertainty is whether he is, in fact, doing an in-class presentation, or just realized at the last minute that he needed more for a term paper than "this is what my buddy and I think about relationships.")

If it's actually the "Intro to sociology" he claims it is, that's listed as taught by "department," meaning whoever they can fob it off on, but it's unlikely they'd be getting into this; there's a more relevant 200-level course. But the department is small enough that it's quite likely that one of the two names given as teaching that course is involved.
