Colleges have children for customers. They simply terrorize them, because they can.
Their “providers” are overgrown children who never left school called “professors”. They act out routinely without moderation.
School consumers should demand accountability and complain loudly if such demands are met with grade retaliation.
You’re paying for an education. You should teach your children to be demanding consumers and help them do that.
Excellent point. Far too many professors have spent their entire careers being professors with no real world experience from my personal experience, the adjunct faculty, who have actually done for a career outside and academic setting what they are teaching were far better at teaching the subject to make it, understandable and relevant.
