I finished giving a speech in communications class a few days ago. Along with our speech, we must turn in a manuscript, outline, and bibliography. I turned mine in all right, but with one error... it was in 10 point font and not 12. I had to redo all 3 in 12 point font and hand them in late. As if this isn't stupid enough, I lost points for turning it in late, because of the font. Stupidest rule ever.

Well if she accepted it, you would of lost points for having the wrong font size.Truth lies in loneliness, When hope is long gone by -Blind Guardian, The Soulforged

RE: My teacher
I sympathize, but if I was the teacher, I think I would punish the kid who turned something in size 10 font instead of size 12.
Did you want to fit it into the same page or something?Comment

RE: My teacher
Good point, but she wouldn't accept it. In my opinion this should be a preference rather than a rule.Comment

RE: My teacher
which brings up the question. wouldve you lost more points if you had brought it in late or gave it to her with the incorrect size? or did she just not accept the incorrect size?Well if she accepted it, you would of lost points for having the wrong font size.

RE: My teacher
That's a pretty stupid rule if you ask me.
These teachers should be worrying about the content.Originally posted by Henri PoincaréComment

This reminds me of this one time when I decided to test out of a class. I needed a 76 to pass. I ended up getting a 75.6, mind you for not opening the book for the 3 month I had it, that's pretty good. Needless to say they wouldn't let me pass. Bunch of bull if you ask me.
About your font size I guess if you wanted it to fit on one page you could have adjusted the margains. Other than that it's a fairly stupid rule.Comment

My math teacher [jerk] won't give you credit for your work if you don't put your name, date, hour, section, and problem set as follows
________________________________|______
________________________________|_Name
________________________________|_Date
________________________________|_Hour
________________________________|_Sect.
________________________________|_Prob #s
________________________________|______
If you start writing before the pink line he won't accept it, and if the problem set is long and you write it on two lines, or double on the same line, then he won't accept it, and he doesn't accept late work.It\'s not a kitty anymore.Comment

I just have one thing to say in this thread:
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
If you don't do what the teacher says, don't whine when you lose points.

Teachers do this to build routine. And to Bahamut-X specifically, fix it by doing this

Teacher's shouldn't be able to do stuff like this. They shouldn't have that power. Do they? Yes.
All this nitpicking is worthless. And it makes things harder for students and not all that much easier for the teacher.Originally posted by Henri PoincaréComment
