The one who takes your class as an elective even though he's already carrying a full load -- and still does all the homeworks and presents seminars as required of those who are taking it for credit. The one who responds to your plea at the end of one seminar, "Does anyone know any topology?" by offering to come back in an hour after his next class to offer advice. The one who goes through a few rounds of definition tweaking and discussion via email, and then brings a library book to lend you at the next seminar. The one who shows up, unannounced, at your office one morning bringing another library book that he thought might be relevant. The one who, when you send out an email offering to do informal logic seminars over Easter break for anyone who is around and is interested, writes back saying he is. The one whom you suspect you might be able to sway away from pure maths into logic, which is ALWAYS a joyful conquest.
One of the ones who makes it all worthwhile.
