[quote=Anonymous]I thought I would side with the professor on this one based on the title but it is the professor who screwed up, not the students. Any reasonable person would think a submission at 11:59 was ok. If the deadline is "Tuesday" you think you can submit on Tuesday without penalty. You don't think you have to submit on Monday to avoid a penalty. The professor's using 11:59 as the deadline suggested that students had through the last minute of the last day to submit their work on time. The new day started precisely at midnight. The professor set the computerized clock incorrectly. If he wanted 12:59 to be late then he should have said the deadline was 11:58 (which would have been idiotic but at least would have given students a warning that something fishy was going on).
