I once discovered where the texts for our touch typing exams were saved on the network.

Made for some funny exams afterwards...

Edit: well, funny for my adolescent self...

We did the opposite.

Once the source texts were found, we changed them all to short sequences of home row keys.

Everyone began typing at 300+ wpm.
