[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He did the work over the weekend because until Sunday afternoon, he didn’t know school was cancelled.  He didn’t submit it because he did not think assignments are due when there is no school.  It would never have occurred to me either.  I would think it would be accepted before the next class. I guess we are both extremely stupid.

I’m not saying the teacher doesn’t have the right to do it. I just think it was unnecessary.  In that case, why didn't all the teachers make stuff due for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday?  They could have done it even if school didn’t end up being cancelled. Could have kept the kids very busy each day without it being asynchronous. None of them did that.

I went to a pretty rigorous college and no professor wouldn’t have granted an extension. My father was the dean at and honors college and when I told him this he literally said, are you kidding me?

Why in the world would he finish an assignment and not submit it, if he has to submit it online??  He doesn't have to wait until the due date, you know.

When I was in college my professor would have granted an extension, too-- because I had to walk across campus and hand it in in person. It's 2026. If he is submitting it digitally, SNOW DOES NOT MATTER. Use a little common sense.[/quote]
