Makes me SERIOUSLY glad I have no degrees from that institution. Apparently no one in upper management has figured out that they are cutting their own throats.

Potential employers should note that students with lower grades would be, on average, much more tolerant to stress.

An entire generation is coming of age unable to handle normal life stress, unable to make tough but necessary decisions, unable to roll with the punches and bounce back.

Oh, Trump was on TV. I feel stressed. Gimme an A. Just shows that a degree is worth nothing any more.

Three thoughts: 1. The nuns would have beat me senseless if I asked for this kind of foolishness.

2. These are STEM students (I am a PhD in a STEM-y field). Of ALL the people who need to get good grades that truthfully reflect their work in a course, it’s STEM students.

3. I’ve been on doctoral and masters admissions committees. I’d have to think twice before letting one of these snowflakes into a graduate program.

The “university” should also throw in free tuition.

Their degrees are now worthless.

Any entity that hires an engineer from UG incurs liability for knowingly hiring an unqualified person.

Why not let them pick the amount of tuition they'd like to pay, instead?

This has already been posted numerous times. Moreover the professor has retracted his offer so it is more than moot

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.
