Call girl Ashley Dupre was not on Spitzer's syllabus Tuesday, as the ex-governor stepped into a City College of New York classroom. The New York Daily News reports that Spitzer is teaching a law and public policy course, and his first lecture had students laughing and clapping.

He also called Obama's stimulus package "not enough and poorly constructed."
