[quote=Anonymous]I'm a Prof (not at UMD) and I'd say that the comments about flexibility are completely professor-dependent. Universities give faculty broad parameters (policy on illnesses; policy on non discrimination). And beyond that, faculty set their own policies about flexibility and there are enormous variations. Some are real hard-asses-- 100% attendance expected; no makeups or late submissions without a doctor's notes (and frankly, with some of those faculty we sometimes need to intervene and make them do the makeup when a kid had a clear, documented emergency). And some faculty are completely flexible about absolutely everything. It's not a UMD thing. You'll find the same variation everywhere. And it's always been there. I've been teaching 25 years and these differences have always occurred (though post-COVID I'd say a lot of faculty are a lot more flexible than before for a lot of different reasons).[/quote]
