[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To all the "have a heart" poster: Ok, let's say Professor Hardass tells your son that he isn't late because he turned it in at 11:59:50. I guess that's ok. But what about Braden who turned it in at 12:00:00? I guess that's ok too. And oh! Kaylee turned it in at 12:00:02 but she started to submit at 11:50 and her internet was slow because her little brother was gaming so please is it ok? Also, Kayleigh's grandmother was sick (not the grandmother that was sick in April, or the one in May, the third grandmother) so that's why she turned it in at 2am thanksssssss for understanding and also is there any extra extra credit because she didn't get a chance to do the first extra credit.

Do you see how this goes? Hard lines (with exceptions made for DOCUMENTED accommodations and emergencies) are more fair to more students, and take the biases and weirdness out of jurying constant student exception requests, which I assure you, are free flowing and often very creative. I can also assure you that the last majority of us are being pretty liberal this semester with grades, and that I am almost certain if your son doesn't like his grade he can take a P instead of the letter.

Prof Hardass would need to prove his 11:59 time stamp is actually the “correct“ time. [/quote]

Of course. But the beauty of a leaning management system is that it does it for you automatically. [/quote]
