Oct 29, 2016 at 0:42 | comment | added | Nij | In many countries the award of grades in a course and credit in a degree is at least generally regulated by law. That often means meeting conditions explicitly laid out, like adhering to policies and completing all work required. Suggesting that a professor can do what they like in place of a syllabus, especially when not formally recorded as the method of examination, would endanger the legitimacy of the course and possibly the degree, in law. Whether it's ethical or not isn't the question; whether the course credit or degree cab be withdrawn is, and you haven't addressed that at all. | |
