College Student Submits Only Title For His Project And Takes Advantage Of Grading Policy

He was merely according to the grading guidelines, after all! There is a purpose for its presence. This college student had been doing well on all the prior project-related assignments and was aware that the lowest grade would be dropped because it was specified in the syllabus. He had to make a difficult choice and submit a mediocre assignment (by mediocre, we literally mean just the title page and a brief summary of the project) in order to prioritize the more challenging assessments due to other upcoming finals.
