  Case: Always late
For the third time, a Jeremy arrives to your classroom late (he is in a wheelchair). Your syllabus specifies a reduction in points for repeated tardiness. You feel bad because you do not know if the reason he is late is because of the wheelchair and you don't want to discriminate him just because he is disabled. What should your course of action be?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
First, talk to him and ask what the problem is. If he is older (in high school or middle), instead of giving him detention have him come in and do makeup work.
