Case: 20 minutes late, no exam for you
Brian is a student in your Monday class. He is furious that you won't let him take an exam because he showed up 20 minutes late. He throws down his textbooks, knocks over a desk, and yells at you, "This ain't over!" before storming out of the class. You report the incident to office. Through the grapevine, you hear that the student had been sent to the Counseling Center, but you don't know the results of the intervention. The next day, you are shocked to see Brian walk into class and sit down in the front row. He stares daggers at you the entire class. What do you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would act as if nothing happened and welcome Brain back to the classroom despite the mean glares. I would ask to talk to him privately after class to explain why I did what I did and to explain the importance to coming to class on time. I would tell him that we went over the procedures and consequences of being late in exam day. I will be willing to work with Brain to get his grade back up from not being able to take the exam if he is willing to but in the work and come to class on time. |

Comments: It is important not to tarnish a relationship with a student over one incident. This will be a good learning experience for him and giving him the opportunity to work on his grade will show him that you care about him. |

Comments: I agree with this solution. It is firm, yet gives him the chance to work on his grade with you if he is willing to work with you and follow procedures. |

Comments: It's best to go on as this is a new day. I would want to give Brian another chance after having the talk, but only if he truly earned it! |
