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.

1. A class is graded on different projects weighing 60% of the total course and the end term final weighs 40%

2. OP did 5 projects and couldn’t score very well in the final project, he asked the professor to clarify the policy he had stated that something needs to be sent so OP send a blank file with title only

3. The professor tells the student he has submitted nothing and won’t get any marks, the student argues about getting 5 points

4. OP goes to the department chair and highlights the policy previously stated and the chair agrees to it

5. OP was also worried about the final but since it was MCQs-based, the professor won’t do anything. The malicious compliance was successfully done for doing the project subpar

6. OP has just stated a few reasons why he had done this

7. Some teachers are truly hard to understand

8. Well, I think the same

9. Someone has shared a similar story. What are your thoughts on it?

10. Perfectly summed up by a Redditor

11. OMG that’s a story to learn from

12. This is how everyone should be

13. Bravo for sending the email, OP really did a daring work here by standing out for himself

14. Exactly

15. True
What is your take on the story? Do you agree with the behavior that OP showed? What would you do if you were in her situation? I think that the professor is clearly at fault here. Do share your opinion with us. If you want to read more such articles on our website, keep visiting us!
