[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IME, those with longer breaks between classes skip more. If you have 2 hours to kill, most students go back to their dorms instead of staying on the main campus. Once in the dorms they get distracted by naps or friends and tend to skip. I'm 100% shocked the advisers would even entertain your request. Is your kid under 18? If so, I can see how but if not, bravo for you for getting that done. Where I taught would not have let that happen for an 18-year-old. I had parents go to the Dean of my college to complain about me not telling them their kid's grades. [b]They didn't understand that just because you pay for it doesn't mean you have access to it unless the student gives you access.[/b] Where I taught, most lower level courses were MWF and most higher level courses were T/Thr for longer periods of time. [/quote] Ridiculous policy. If the parent is paying they should see grades and any disciplinary issues. Colleges don't do this out of respect for the "adult" kid, it's so they can avoid transparency and all accountability from parents.[/quote] FERPA of 1974 prevents the release of grades without the student’s written permission.[/quote]
