I can definitely say my college profs would have said fine, don't do the assignment and put a big fat F on my transcript.

Wussy little snowflakes. Can't wait until they get out into the real world.

“Despite our best attempts to explain assessment tasks, any lack of clarity can generate anxiety and even discourage students from attempting the assessment at all.”

As someone who is prone to just winging it, I find this LOL-worthy.

Capital letters and Donald Trump......frightening.

Unfettered Islamic immigration.....wonderful and noble.

That’s Western Europe in a nutcaseshell.

This is okay. Instead of handing out F's, just hand out f's instead. Or, even better, hand out f's

Imagine what would happen if they saw the letters “MAGA”?

All Caps. Bold font. 36 Font size

They’d lose their minds.

I KNEW FEW here like or respect Sylvester Stallone, and you may have valid reasons, but the following speech from one of his movies IS AS CONSERVATIVE A STATEMENT AS ONE GETS:

Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!

Maybe THAT should be taught in college classes.

Every sensible person should write a letter of objection to the University, IN ALL CAPS!

Some kids I grew up with only wrote in capital letters.

Then I guess the Internet came along and people told them they were "screaming" all the time.

Nowadays, kids may not hand write anything at all.

God forbid the “perfessers” scare “the children” with caps. I guess we could blame the Sesame Street puppets for initially
scaring the crap out of them with caps when they were young.

How would they react to “SECOND COMING” type? (An old newspaperman used that term to describe the largest headline font)

Does that include using lower case letters when grading as in “f”?
