Beat me to it.
Seriously, I would go to their office hours at least once. It's always a good idea to make sure that the professor knows who you are. I was asked to be a tutor for one of my professors from last semester. I don't think he would have asked if he had not remembered me.

Having a sexual relationship with one's profs is a terrible idea because it can so easily backfire. Now, being their drug dealer, that is always win!

What drugs do they most commonly use? I have good connections with the DC crack market (interned at a V50 drug ring summer after jr year)

I heard at some schools the profs can be kind of distant (and douchey) so it's hard to develop any kind of sexual connection relationship with them.

Get to the point where they know your name and maybe your interests/goals, but don't ever get to that way-too-personal stage. You should never become "that guy" but you should also be familiar enough with them that, when you need a favor or reference, you don't have to say "you don't know me but I took your Torts class." It's a balancing act, and it really varies based on the professor. Some of my professors, I probably visited 4-6 times over the semester. Others, once or none at all. You'll figure it out.

dont be the guy/ girl who stops by the professors office to chit chat or answer every SINGLE question posed in class, or is the one that has a question when the professor says " well end the class early if no one has any questions" Your fellow classmates will loathe you and will put exlaxx in your coffee every time you go to the bathroom during study sessions.....

Too bad law profs can't be more like Master Po.
Master, must I always serve the law?
Hear the law; serve justice,
