  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!)
Hopefully in my class I would have already gone over the procedures with my class about tardiness and exam procedures so that this could be pointed out to Brian. But after he returns, I would be sure to let Brian know either through a note or pull him aside and let him know I appreciate him returning to class in a better manner and hopefully ready to learn for the next test. But also let him know of the procedures to remind him and then ask he has any questions and concerns. As time passes, remind him the day before the exam to set his alarm early and get a good nights rest to be ready to ace the exam in the morning! :)
