[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I doubt I had a backup pair of glasses in college (those were the days when my prescription didn’t change as often and I wore glasses til the fell apart and were beyond repair) and I’m useless without my glasses. As a prof, I would have considered this a valid reason for an extension.[/quote] Not if the student had a week to do the assignment and chose to do the entire thing the night before. I would ask for what the student had done up until that point. If it was nothing, I would ask for a photo of the broken glasses and give a one-day extension if there was proof.[/quote] Realistically you aren't getting new glasses in one day. They'd need to go to the eye doctor if the prescription isn't within a year and then spend a fortune at Lens Crafters, Vision works or somewhere that does it same day to get them same day assuming they have the prescriptions in stock.[/quote]
