It goes like this:

A corporate executive, a Columbia University graduate student and auto mechanics were busted by federal agents for allegedly making methamphetamine in locations as diverse as a penthouse overlooking the United Nations and the repair bay of Potamkin Mitsubishi.

Others arrested include 28-year-old Mehmetcan Dosem*ci, a graduate student and teaching assistant at Colombia University [sic] who mixed methamphetamine to stay awake for tests.

Graduate student in the History department, no less [source].
