here, though, the deadline wasn't the issue.
Quote:
Dorval said he always gave uncompleted work what is called "reluctant zeros," where his students were given a number of opportunities to make up the assignment and have the zero replaced with a mark.
"Most of my students did that," he said. "By the end of the year, I hardly had any zeros at all."
He does recall however, one student who had only completed six of 15 items.
He gave them chances to hand stuff in late and actually get a 'mark' instead of the zero.
Now, if he really is a dick, and was picking on that one kid, or something along those lines, that makes the situation different. But based on the article, I think the school's rule itself is lame. And he's right for fighting it.
