Is this scenario an exception to the rule of never storing passwords in plaintext?
There is no need to store any identifying information. The student asks for the password for their username. I realise this isn't secure, but since users have to request their passwords from the Prof anyway, no need to store any personally identifiable information on the server.

Why do we need to specify the type of data a pointer will hold, if all pointers are the same
Surely the reason that we type pointers is because a void* could point to anything? It's helpful to type them for that very reason.
