    I said opinions are not facts, get a life. If anything you misrepresent yourself. Who said you misrepresented something. If the shoe fits where it. The court has spoken.

    I said at the end of the day the professor has the power to make objective decisions. I agree with the court.

    What a miserable person you must be.

    I agree with the court legally. But the case confirms my view of petty little bitter professors and teachers.

    There will always be some who abuse what little authority they have, and teachers are no exception.

    My daughter received a B+, her only non-A in HS, when she left on the team bus to play for the state girl's soccer final. She had cleared it in advance with the teacher, who either forgot or changed his mind, and gave her a 0 for either a classroom assignment or pop quiz. That final B+ dropped her from class valedictorian. We did not intervene or speak to the teacher. She learned that there are some adults who can be petty, vindictive, etc. Life lessons can be more important than book lessons.

    She's now a senior in an engineering program and that B+ is still the only non-A she has ever received.

    Hmmm, My daughter went to regional playoffs and let the teacher know ahead of time but when she got her report card it said she was absent for the day. We told her to talk to the teacher and explain what happened. She did and the absent was removed.

    When in doubt talk to the teacher, most are willing to help. And kept records it helps.



    And Megan Thode, its more to this story. An, O what she do sleep the entire class...............

    Be assured that my straight-A daughter did speak to this teacher - to discover that he harbored some resentment against student athletes who missed his class (even with prior permission) to represent the school at that level. We don't fight out kids' battles with teachers who are having bad days.

    Yes, there is likely more to the Thode story.

    I agree. Except unlike your daughter, this woman learned the wrong lesson.
    Congratulations.
