She came to you at the end of the semester, 80% of the grade already in (and she's failing), and looked at you tearfully and said, "Is there some extra credit or something I could do to improve my grade? It's really important to me that I do well in this class!"Jennifer Lorenzettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786323329087269634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-52329831243203640302016-02-23T11:08:17.031-05:002016-02-23T11:08:17.031-05:00@Candida Gomez: I don't know about Dr. Grumpy&...@Candida Gomez: I don't know about Dr. Grumpy's story but the case I referred to--she needed some class in order to have the 12 credit hours needed to remain eligible to play basketball.

(And her tests weren't as easy as that sounds--they didn't make you regurgitate facts, they made you combine two facts to get the answer. If you forgot a name or something you could look it up but if you didn't know the material you might as well flip a coin.)Loren Pechtelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08348494458707790769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5883634615775822475.post-30491820139541205002016-02-20T10:06:45.026-05:002016-02-20T10:06:45.026-05:00General Chemistry I: the professor is telling us t...General Chemistry I: the professor is telling us things we should know/review for the exam.<br /><br />Dr. Mendeleev: "Make sure you know basic properties of the table."<br /><br />Ms. Kardashian, dumbfounded: "What table?!?!?
