[quote=Anonymous]So, it sounds like the deadline was 11:59:00 and OP's son submitted at 11:59:30 or whatever. Basically, if the system marked it late, it is late. That's the only fair way to do this, because otherwise the deadline is just whatever the kid with the loudest parents says it is. I'm also really skeptical that "multiple" kids in the class submitted at 11:59:XX because the VAST majority of young people know that it takes a few seconds or minutes for the document to be uploaded and you should not screw around over a matter of seconds. Finally, I agree with PPs that pulling out the chronic illness now is going to reflect badly on him. If he was struggling due to the illness and needed a few more days, most professors are flexible. But unless he was actively ill at 11:55 in a way he was not at 11:59, I don't see how it matters. [/quote]
