What? I did not get an A?

Helicoptor parents?

Background provided by Instructor: This email was received on a Saturday night – the night before a paper was due. The paper was assigned months ago.

Hi, this is not (student’s name), this is her father. Unfortunately, my daughter is at a hotel for the weekend that does not have Internet, so she asked me to log into her account and email you to let you know she will be submitting her paper (due tomorrow) when she returns to campus on Monday.  Thank you for your understanding.

 

I am waiting by my computer for your emails

(sent to professor at almost midnight)

i am confused about the paper you assigned that is due tomorrow for class and it would be great if  you could  get back to me right away.  i need to know if it has to be 1,000 characters or 1,000 words.  i don’t think i ever picked up the syllabus. please reply as soon as you get this.

Background provided by Instructor: : Students submit their papers to a site that screens for plagiarism…. a higher % indicates a greater probability that the paper is not the student’s original work; she is confused.
