Georgia College STEM course lets entitled students choose grades, opt-out of homework, and leave student groups with new stress policy.
University of Georgia campus descends further into emotionally-immature amateur hour with participation trophy policy to reduce college students stress, reducing a STEM course to little more than an adulting version of Kindergarten Nap-Time
In a stunning but not-to-surprising example of the deteriorating quality of education and discipline in Americas universities, A UoG STEM college course in data management has adopted what they call a Stress Reduction Policy.
This stress policy, in all its extravagant methods of stroking students over-inflated egos, essentially give entitled students the right to request the grades they want, opt-out of group assignments, and leave student groups without giving an explanation. All of this, says class instructor Rick Watson, can be done on the grounds of feeling stressed about inferior grades and inadequate performance.

Georgia College or a Georgia college?
I will volunteer to take all fiat money from its victims.
Surely it is a heavy burden, but I’ll take a bullet for the common good.
Apparently this will not happen, a spasm of rationality hit the administration.
Their degrees are now worthless.
Any entity that hires an engineer from UG incurs liability for knowingly hiring an unqualified person.
</sarcasm>
You went to what school????
Fake grades with a fake school. A double whammy indeed
One would think that people would have some basic knowledge of current events on here. Alas, that’s apparently not the case. I guess everyone’s not as “newsy” as I am.
This has already been posted numerous times. Moreover the professor has retracted his offer so it is more than moot
“One would think that people would have some basic knowledge of current events on here. Alas, thats apparently not the case. I guess everyones not as newsy as I am.”
One would think that googling would be appropriate when you see a three day old article ...
“Their degrees are now worthless. Any entity that hires an engineer from UG incurs liability for knowingly hiring an unqualified person.”
You are guilty of libel. This was not the college of engineering and the policy was retracted before being put in place.

And they’re going to be crushed by meat eaters. Wells’ “Time Machine” ring any bells?
This was changed recently, due to STEM rules, from the part where you had to stop at all stop signs in Athens.
GO GATORS!!!
And graduates ask: “You want fries with you order?”
Close the university.
Game over.
“Close the university”
Why?
IF they issue a diploma with this kind of nonsense, & employers use that information to hire these cheats-—Then I say the U of Georgia is open massive FRAUD lawsuits.
IF I were an employer, I would sue in a heartbeat.
Receiving a diploma & then NOT being able to stand up to the rigors of the job I offered to that person would make me furious.
I wonder if this could be done retroactively? I have asome less than impressive grades from my college years I would like changed.
