Mack Marketing
Since Mack's exams are of essay type, it makes less difference to him if students copy questions -- though he does use random questions from categories. Answers are harder to copy since Mack tests conceptual understanding.
Ida Informatics
To keep the exam valid indefinitely, Ida wants to take all the precautions possible to prevent students from copying questions or answers.
As books are updated, material tested in a certain chapter may be moved to another chapter. Ida wants to be able to change the category of the exam and sometimes even expire a question so it can't be used in an exam.
Harvey Historian
Even if some student somehow happened to get all of the questions in Harvey's question bank, after learning good answers to all of them that student would essentially have earned his good grade, anyway.
