The word “prank” tends to have a negative connotation. That said, not all pranks are done with the intent to have a negative impact. While it may be trickier to think of wholesome pranks, a class full of students at Belmont University are proving that it is possible — and more than worth it! As the semester was coming to a close, one student in particular had a brilliant idea.

This class was taught by a law professor named David Hudson. According to the feedback this prank has gotten, it’s clear that he is greatly loved. But there’s something else about him that may not be as well known: He has a reoccurring alarm set on his phone for 9 a.m. — this is so he’ll wake up in time for class. That said, he doesn’t actually need it every day, so sometimes, the alarm goes off during class. His students have learned this by now, and it gave them an idea…

When you have an alarm that goes off every day, it’s something you can get accustomed to it quite quickly. So, when 9 a.m. hits and David’s phone goes off, it takes him just a moment to recognize something is different today. In addition to his usual alarm, every single one of his students have a phone that’s making noise, too! The only thing more wholesome than the prank itself is David’s heartwarming reaction.

“To be loved is to be known,” someone wisely points out in the comment section of the viral video, with another adding, “As a teacher, that’s how you know you’ve truly made a positive impact on your student’s lives.”
A third person adds, “Humans can be so cute sometimes.”
