WTF!? I thought I was at university
Little background, I am taking an intermediate level geology course and have only one major assignment dur for the entire semester that was due last week (Nov 19).
I slacked off and didnt finish it so I sent the prof an email asking for an extension and got one until today, again I wasnt done so I sent her another email explaining that I was sorry it was not there yet and I would have it to her tomorrow. She replies that it is no problem and just to make sure I have it to her by Dec 8, last day of class. WTF!? I thought this was university not some BS where you can get extensions because the 30/60 was ripe for the picking and I has a 30 hour session. I think it might also have something to do with the factthat she works for the same company as my dad. I was kinda expecting an email alog the lines of " get it in here today and expect a 30% deduction in marks". |

I doubt that shes pretty cool, she said a bunch of people were in the same boat and no one was going to get marks taken off.

Re: WTF!? I thought I was at university
so pretty much once you decided you were turning your paper in late we were going to get a thread complaining about either outcome?

No I was just a bit surprised at the outcome, I was expecting to get a few marks taken off at the least.

I've been on both sides of this mess, and unless your geology class has like 300 people or is grad level, oddjob is probably correct.
