- Texas A&M Galveston Professor Irwin Horwitz on why he failed his entire strategic management class.
Watch Gerri Willis talk about College Planning and Education on Willis Report.
If you had to fail an entire class, then you've failed as an educator.
That i agree. Especially what this professor did, i'd bet that there was even some good students in his class that is paying thousands only to be flunked out by a professor that got pissed by a some other student.

My luck I'd be the one kid who was behaving.
yankee196575 “Bah! These damn millenials cheating the school system! It’s time I one-up these pretentious bastards!” That’s literally how you’re coming across bu the way.
If a student is misbehaving in class then the misbehaving student will be dealt with. If more then 1 student is misbehaving then only the students that are misbehaving will be dealt with. Any students that had nothing to do with the misbehaving will be left alone. This is how the school system should work.
You did not listen to what he said, you fool.

Teaches a strategic management class... can’t strategically manage his class.
this is University...not junior school.
Rob. Vent but lad, he did manage his class. He gave each tiny tot an F.
F stands for failure. Each one of these tiny tots are failures.
Class dismissed.
It's pretty hard, when they don't even know what they should have learned in the 7th grade! This was the final installment of a 3 part business management class and they didn't even know how to figure out how many apples they needed to sell to break even? 😧
You must be a millennial . Because the teacher don’t teach behavioral
Every university should be staffed with professors like him.
Imagine paying 1k$ and being quiet in the back and then the professor goes karen mode and fails you because some other students were not following
Where are you going paying 1k for classes? Lol

This is not new happens every year at least 10 times if not more and thats per school.
You know there’s that one quiet kid in the back who’s done all the work and did everything perfect and they got roped in with the “bad kids”, and they’re just sitting there getting yelled at by their parents wondering why they didn’t pass
@mrbobbilly same ! If I so much as got a 60 on a test in high school my god would I panic. I am a 2nd year college student and I still am like this. I stress about my essays tests homework etc. My professors see it I work hard and over work myself. They say I'm doing fine but I worry about slipping ( grade wise ).
I thought the same thing. No way these students are paying thousands of dollars on tuition and ALL of them are flunkies. That’s not statistically possible. This teacher strikes me as “They’re all bad, and if they’re not bad, they cheated”
@@Tempusverum Good news I got an A in my hardest class
The Road to Cosplay and Comic Con Good for you. I just finished finals myself
They should make sad one accommodations for the good students but I think this is protest move by the professor to the school because they don’t support ethical behavior.

@@StarFleet_Tech1701 Since right and wrong are relative descriptors, of course a group of similar individuals would see the passing of Boomers to be a largely good thing.

"isn't it their job to learn?"
isn't it yalls job to *teach?*
Very smart comment... Except, they were teaching them, and the students refused to learn. Other than that tiny detail which completely breaks the symmetry, very smart comment.
That’s why there’re prerequisite classes
Victim pussyboy.
In this day and age with an abundance of access to information, even a bad teacher doesn’t necessarily mean one will not do well.
He reviewed material they needed to learn to pass a prerequisite class.
They did not learn it.
They did not learn it the second time.
When does YOUR expectation transition to a responsibility to learn??
What he described, a profit pivot, is necessary and translatable for all work.
I worked at AACargo. We started with 9 weeks of basics like this. People like myself aced through this. People who refused to learn did stupid things I had to catch all the time. Like booking 25lbs. of INK on a passenger flight, without checking that INK is a Dangerous Good.
The university didn't uphold the "flunkings", and a department head took over the class. Looks like the only fail was him.
lmfao
Universities are no longer in the education business, they'll pass the students as long as the tuition checks don't bounce. This is why we no longer hire recent grads.
Jim Grady Bitch
Jim Grady lol except if your in any stem program you'll fail if you don't work hard.
No it seems like the only fail was the university that decided to give those students a second chance even though they don't deserve it.
Very unprofessional news lady. “What is it with these millennials” you should be fired

Pontificating B####
@@mgray4254 Fox is just as slanted and prone to disinformation as every major, and often minor, news network. I suspect that the fault lies with their audiences. The typical news media consumer doesn't fact check information that agrees with their pre-existing views and prefers to be told to that their position is correct. They have little monetary incentive to hint to their support base that their beliefs might be nuanced or even flat out wrong.
I’d be livid. Immediately enter the deans office and demand full tuition reimbursement.
My professor is being tough and not letting me make up 2 important exams even though I was hospitalized for a week and have a note to prove it. I'll fail if I don't get perfect grades for the rest of the semester which is a quiz and the final. Can I go to the dean about this?
Yes
Rachel E. Should’ve already been there. Schedule appointment immediately
@@Krawberry right now is break so I'll email the dean and schedule an appointment on Monday. All of this is new. I just found out what my professor planned to do on Tuesday

Fox news: "This is a story that might make you smile."
One professor possibly ruined the future and motivation of his students...
Only on fox...
That was my first reaction.
4th year students are caught not knowing things they should have learned in 1st year. Their future was destroyed by their 101 professors.
Agreed, he should have pointed out that it probably wasn't the students' faults if they were underprepared for his class but their previous professors' lack of ensuring that they learned the information.
At first I was against him but as he mentioned that they weren't ready for his material I see this more as telling his own school change the way you prepare them for the upper division classes or they won't get anywhere. Think of someone who got by easily with your major but you actually worked hard. Then a job hires them as a position you'd like, but they're idiots. Then that devalues your skills and degree so then the real professionals can't get a job either because of employers knowing that your university let's idiots go by.
I thought it was a mistake I don't like how the newscasters is using proper diction.
Just imagine being in this class, you are perfectly well behaved and worked hard to get were you are, you find a lot of your fellow classmates are idiots and jerks, you think "ok this will be a bit annoying to deal with for a semester but I can deal with it" then one day you get an email from your proffer telling you that you have been flunked because of something you had nothing to do with and had no control over.
Brennan Perry I had a teacher that did that I was so pissed off. Thank God I have a mom that was able to tell me what to do cause I freaked out so much.
This happened to me in seventh grade. Before I start, let me clear this up, this was the kind of teacher who would talk down to her students, and belittle them in class, which she has done many many times. Due to this, we had little to no respect for her or her authority.
Our science teacher “taught” by having 13 YEAR OLDS watch THE MAGIC SCHOOLBUS!! Every day. 5 days a week. For 45 minutes a day. With NO teacher participation. (She sat at her desk and ate and/or played candy crush)During this, about 5 out of the 20 of us (not me) started asking her to explain something. She refused, and told them they could just “figure it out”. This made them mad. One of them then asked her “ aren’t you PAYED to teach us?”. She glared at him, and continued playing her phone. This same boy then started singing “The Magic School Bus” theme song, with the intent of angering the teacher. She then walked out of the classroom, Without saying a word. The teacher returned with the headmaster. Apparently, she told the headmaster that our ENTIRE class had been SCREAMING. The headmaster told us that if he teacher had another problem with US the ENTIRE CLASS would have detention.
The next day, the teacher showed up with a SEVEN PAGE(not much, if we had learned it) test on human science(I can’t remember exactly what it was on), which we HAD NOT been taught(it is in the state standards, but she didn’t teach it). The highest grade in the class was a 35(me)out of 100. The other 19 made 30 or below.
Myself and a friend politely confronted her on the subject(the next day before class).We started by asking exactly when she had taught the material on the aforementioned test. She told us “that was none of our concern”. (My thoughts:WTF!! OUR GRADES ARENT OUR CONCERN?!?!) I, in disagreement, (losing care of politeness at this point) asked her how the quality of OUR education is “none of our concern”. She responded with “quit questioning me or go to the office”. My friend has sat quietly this entire time, he doesn’t like to question the authority, I find it fun. At this time, I look at him expecting some kind of backup, he just shrugs his shoulders. I, disappointed my friend wasn’t going to question her with me, ignore the teachers threat (she makes empty threats a lot) and return to questioning. With rising anger in my voice, I said “So, how do you intend to fix these grades?”. She looks at me weirdly, laughs, and says “she has no intent to fix the grades”.
Now I’m mad, and I don’t get mad often. I walk into the classroom, and tell the ENTIRE CLASS she intends to fail us ALL. They then ran straight to her, and started launching what seemed like an endless array of questions. This was... entertaining for me.... very entertaining. She stood their, dumbfounded at the amount of questions and anger. By the time she got the class quiet enough to hear, she told us that she would delete the grades, and reteach the material before retesting us. She did remove the grades, but she never retaught or retested on the material. This teacher was fired later that year due to spreading rumors about us, as well as several other problems. I’m gonna call this a win.
Me:4 Teacher:0
Also let me add that I’m the kid who sits in the back of class and keeps to myself usually... ussually
FYI K-12 is free. Undergrad is EXPENSIVE. These students have to pay thousands of dollars to retake the course because this guy couldn’t handle his own job.
Ben G I go to private school. Not as expensive as undergrad, but not free
He even says certain "pockets" of students, as in not the whole class??
Exactly, yet still fails the whole class
@@ogToasteryeeter I've NEVER EVER backed mass disciplinary action in any setting. It sucks to see it enforced in a class room for the few that are actually trying to pass!!
Mass punishment is a war crime.
Rae Smith I’ve never seen a single school/teacher get in trouble for this maybe in war but not at school
This is more of a school problem than a teacher problem.
Why would anybody smile, that's just a big waste of money, and time.
"now here’s something that’ll make you smile! students failing!"
awesome cool great to know what kind of person you are
I smiled a bit not gonna lie.
LOL that is so true
Michael M I didn’t
Abigail Regan no it’s the fact that the students were put int their place....which in this day in age does not happen.
Me : * panics *
It sounds like this guy got angry, flunked everyone; and now has to account for his actions.
A teacher is there to teach, not to instantly give up on people. He's useless.
Official James Parker I am giving you a standing ovation...I would send the picture but I don't get technology.
Very possibly! But we also don't know the specifics! It's very common that you go into a class without remembering stuff you should know from the previous class, but this instructor tripled the days of review. Additionally, the students were aggressive and cheating occurred.
Having said that, it might be the fault of the previous teachers for passing the students with a certain grade, so the students thought they had the required skills/knowledge to sign up for this next class. It's totally possible for the "system" to set you up like that, if it's faulty
Official James Parker Lol This is not Elementary school. For advanced classes students are required to have the preliminary knowledge of the subject, it's not the professor's job to be teaching them the basics when he signed up to be teaching material way ahead of that. These students are adults and they have a certain responsibility for their own education. However I don't know that failing all of them was the right way to go, even though he gave them three days review it seems a bit impulsive to me.
Nah , if people are not prepared to learn . To show respect , fuck 'em .
The kids are required to know the material from the previous classes. Its on the students.
A college professor with a huge ego and doesn’t feel the need he should go out of his way to help the students that are behind. I’m not surprised
It’s a capstone class. There shouldn’t be anyone that far behind. I disagree with the choice to fail everyone, but by your logic a fourth grader should be able to take this class because it’s the teacher’s responsibility that they learn it all.
John Small well there were kids in this class who clearly didn’t learn. Again failing the whole class is an unreasonable extreme, but many of the comments show a bias towards passing no matter what quality of the work that’s turned in which just isn’t how it works.
@John Small What is this "problem" you are referring to?
John Small THANK YOU!! Read the books and ask questions. Lazy students....
They have had other classes in previous years or semesters in which they didn't learn, until that point the teachers gave them passing grades to avoid trouble, (I have seen it many times, even more now because of covid) and the college was happy because they "learned" but in reality it is a lie. The student didn't have the neccesary knowledge, skill and attitudes to be in that class.
The only thing that this proffesor did, was telling the truth.
and most teachers/professors wonder why most students don’t like them. it’s also a system flaw. it shouldn’t have been possible to sign up for said class if they haven’t fulfilled the pre-requisites for said class.
Exactly
The students could just be quiet little idiots and do what they’re told
@@aidenboyle3573 wow slave morality in it’s finest haha
@@ryanobrien2383 what? They’re lucky to be getting taught. They should respect that
@@aidenboyle3573 they dont have a choice if they want a good job
So you are telling me every. single. student in that WHOLE class was causing a issue? Bullshit. It is fine to flunk the kids who are causing issues but don't flunk the kids who did nothing wrong.
Did you even watch the video? He clearly said that students didnt even know to do simple ecuations which should be learned before they even start to attend the class. Fucking millenials, we are raising a generation of idiots.
mudza92 *sigh* you disappoint many.
mudza92 "*We* are raising a generation of idiots" Congradulations, You geezers were the source of the poblem then, dipsgit
Yeah, some people think they are very wise for punishing everyone because of one person's fault.. they're stupid
Prostate Tumor even if there are 10 people screw with him he shouldn't punish the rest of them
Professor: *Fails everyone*
Students: *Obvious angry reaction that any human of any generation would have after having wasted time and money*
Fox news reporter: "So what's with these millennials?"
They wasted their money not trying to learn so they wasted there own time and money.
are u that stupid? He clearly says they didnt understand it not that they didnt try
the reporter is questioning their behavior that lead up to him failing the class not the fact that they were angry afterwards, ignorant comment
That Guy and you actually think the entire class should fail? What are the chances of not even 1 student being able to pass
Nicholas Rivera - they wasted their own time by not taking in seriously and coming prepared... and yes, millennials are a bunch of whiny bitches that think they’re owed
A professor who fails his entire class should be immediately fired on the spot. Professors who believe students learn the material from a textbook and not actually show them how to do things are unfit to be a professor. It's not a relaxation job where you can blackmail a student's mental health for a grade and expect to do nothing.
tell that to higher education...
I had a professor who made a quiz of 20 yes or no questions. All the answers were no, but he wasn’t reprimanded by his dean.
Sounds like he was fired
You obviously didn't watch the entire video or know the whole story. The students he had did not have the knowledge they were supposed to have before they ever took his class, which means that he would have had to spend half of his time giving them the education they needed to even start his own curriculum. THAT'S NOT HIS JOB!! He absolutely should have failed all of them, and the college is wrong for blaming him when THEY are the ones that failed the students before they ever got to his class. This is why a college degree in the US is a joke now. I've worked for several middle managers that were horrible, they had no leadership skills and ruined the company structure under them. But they had their business degrees. And upper management, with their high-falutin degrees, had no idea how bad things were at the lower levels and blamed everyone that left the company. These punk spoiled brat kids need professors like this and a college with ethics and student accountability. Losers.
Well I agree that students who were misbehaving should have failed they were a percentage which took the class seriously and weren't in that situation the better decision would of been fail those students misbehaving and teach the students who want to be there and are doing the work.@@repealthepatriotact

Every single student with no exception what so ever didn't meet the requirements? Not a single one? Doubt it.
Yeah, there's no way it was all of them. Sure, maybe 90%, but there are kids breaking their ass just to barely work 2 jobs to get through 4 years. They can't afford to fail; they study as much as they can.
Chris mckeithen If these students failed exams and that is the reason they failed, that's one thing, but that's not how this came off to me.
It seems like he decided to fail the entire class regardless of the actual grades. And it goes like this- if not a single student in that entire class has any interest in actually learning it and passing, then the class is not needed.
LOL!!!
I just graduated, and this guy is right! WAY too much open cheating. No shame from these punks. Most professors are pussies and try to be friendly as fuck. I was a chem major, so some of these pieces of shit will be doctors in a couple of years. Fail every one of these fuckers, standards are in the toilet.
Evan Prest You realize you basically just said you should be failed, right?
Captain Euro yeah there was almost certainly some Asians in that class
this man used his ego and position to flunk an entire class. fire him.
Theres no way EVERY student wasn't ready. If EVERYONE fails then thats not the fault of the students. Every class has idiots, but every class also has smart people. He had failed the students as a teacher, if one day of review turns into three then so be it, dont just bitch teach.
tenure is a bitch. they have to get full support from the board at the college to even think about firing him. its a blessing and a curse
This man used his authority as a college professor to teach common courtesy & basic logic to flower pedals. But, sissified fairytale Millennials cant handle learning or behaving. They believe paying the University guarentees a passing grade. It does nowadays...but it shouldnt. It is the reason no companies value college degrees anymore, and these same millenials live in their parents basement uintil they are 40 because nobody wants to hire them.
Yeah, I agree that some of those kids are fked up and should be flunked, but it's hard to believe that not a single student could pass, come on, there's at least one Asian kid in there that studied real hard lol...yet his ego got the better of him, I mean he should flunk the kids that were screwing around but also focus on the other kids that were actually studying, now he flunked everyone and the department steps in, basically everyone is passing and the ones that actually worked hard is getting the same as the ones that deserved to be flunked.
MrMeta4ical fuck you

@Vali333 What does that accomplish? Besides providing proof that too many millennials are incapable of handling constructive criticism or progressing past age 5 emotionally? I am SO thankful I was raised by a pre-Boomer father (labels are superfluous) who had no patience for the sheer immaturity of most people born in the last 4 or 5 decades. Evan Sayet is 100% right.

@@dbjkatz no

lloyd sampson :: Hahahaha! When an employee is misbehaving does your boss fire everyone?
No. Plainly, no.
Your logic is poor.
Mass punishment is a war crime
@John Small even if its allowed i find it to be completely flawed. I think that only causes more harm ethically which is the reason why people question the power gap bosses have on employers. Policy gotta change
WienerCracker okay if he had to reteach a concept that they were already supposed to know, followed through by having one review day, had to extend tha to three and had students cheating and failing in his advanced course clearly no one did the work to pass. And on top of it they were calling him names? He would get fired if he failed a student that was making As on those tests. The student can literally get him fired it happened on my campus. So that didn’t seem to be the case so all facts point to no one passed and instead of grading on the curve he failed all of them as no one met the standards to even take this class. It’s like taking algebra and not knowing division. And a high school teacher shouldn’t have to teach high school kids to divide and simultaneously teach algebra and make sure they ready for the real world. Jesus. That’s why we have pre recs in schools. You sound entitled and I’m currently a college student.
If the students did not have the prerequisites done for the class why were they allowed to be enrolled in the class.
Patrick Radcliffe I assume he's saying they didn't study, they just coasted through.
Rather than assume what he says, try listening to his words. That way you will have an actual standpoint. If you listened AND are still assuming maybe you should quit.
Vaslee Anusse bro it's an expression 😂 I guess they were right about RUclips comment sections. I assume that not for the purpose of making assumptions but to try and see what he's trying to say. Have a good life outside of the interwebs👍
You said assume. I went from that. Sorry that you're using it in a creative way that I wasn't aware of. As it is, he never said, "They didn't study" so by all definitions, including internet expressions, you meant assume. Which means assume. Sorry to repeat. It really doesn't matter but please talk about the actual content otherwise your comments are meaningless and a total waste of my time and yours. Best wishes.

Perfect example of “there’s no such thing as a bad student, only a bad teacher”

+mrtroller957 take an econ class and they talk about it. they never said ruin everything but this is a weakness of the millennials
OK so whos teaching the millennial's other millennial's? Stupid kids usually have stupid parents. Yes some millennial's feel entitled but where did they learn that? I'm a millennial that went to public school and if you worked at it you got a great education. Algebra doesn't come up with different answers in 2000 then it did in 1900. This will just be amplified by the "no child left behind act" as marginally bad schools get less funding becoming worse, then getting less funding then becoming worse in a cycle to the bottom. Or "no rich white child left behind act".
Well they ARE to blame.
who would you blame for bad behaviour by adult millennials?
I don't blame millennials for anything, yet. We've yet to see what sort of future they mold for themselves and their progeny.
None of them failed.....He was replaced, and the students all passed.......

Break even analysis is no joke. I graduated with my accounting degree in 2017 and understanding this was expected always, its NO JOKE! Business degrees are earned, not given.
same here... I learned in our managerial accounting class and had this class and we were expected to know all what we learned. I am surprised Texas A&M has this issue since the university I went to is rated lower than this university.
My anatomy teacher had a class average of D- in college, got an A in the second section taught by a different teacher. The teacher is the problem.

Yeah, your second teacher didn’t give a shite if you actually knew what you were doing.
Connor Sinclair my school counselor was thicc also
I once had a teacher so goddamn fucking insane because they had a divorce, that every day they would get mad at the class and give around half of everyone a ticket to the principal's office. Luckily the principal was on our side, but also unfortunately the teacher didn't get fired.
"This is a story that might make you smile."
Correction: *This is a story that might make the 46 year old losers that scream at you for being younger than 30 smile*
Yup
yeah :) what a ridiculous way to start a story... I mean if they were supposed to know so much going into the class, why not give a preliminary test and help them save time and money. From an attitude perspective, who knows what happened there.
I feel you
So, almost every baby boomer that blames all their self-inflicted problems on millenials?
I had been grilled twice for cheating because I aced science test, 8 times in a row. They were sure I had cheated until they did an oral test and even asked off class questions I answered. I even joined genious societies and was in military intelligence... online if I comment these academic failures call me an idiot. Even if its history I lived through.... so yes I smiled because it's TRUE.
I handed an assignment back to one of my college student's after she came in late to class one day. She received a C on the assignment. It was the first assignment of the semester. She looked at it, came up to me after class and demanded to get an A in the class. The demand turned into a form of begging after I sat there and starred at her for a moment giving her a chance to think about what she just said. I then told her "then work for it, I don't give out A's to those who don't deserve it."
This is a reflection of the institution and the professor more than anything.
I’m sure there were some loser kids in that class, but to fail everyone was absurd. 🤦♂️
Ryan losers don’t last long in college
Ryan sometimes you have to wipe the slate clean and start fresh.
Dude. They did not had the tools to pass. He said it wasn’t the behavior. But the realization that these students were not prepared to take this class.
If a whole bunch of 8th graders go to a college calculus class and they don’t know basic algebra do you pass them?

@@rachaelmends3582 Most college courses have prerequisites for a reason. If you haven't mastered the material that comes before a particular course, then you're not ready to be in that one. How is he going to be able to actually do his job of teaching the material he's been asked to teach if he has to spend the whole semester going over things the students are supposed to already know? Better to flunk them and let them brush up on the past material and then try again.

Still, they're paying to learn, not for an empty grade. This "news" report doesn't give both sides of the story; but regardless of who was at fault the focuses should be on educating students, not doing whatever makes them happy in the short term.

Self given moral high ground. A good tell to look for a childish person.
"Should've learned it in a previous course" is the most lazy, over-used excuse that every professor I've ever had tells every class. Most people take the pre-requisites well before the classes they are needed for, but students are expected to remember things that they haven't used in months or even years.
That's invalid, the things you learn are a basis for further knowledge, it can't be forgotten just because you haven't needed it in a while, your knowledge is a set of tools with which to understand further knowledge, if you can't look after your tools, don't complain when you can do shit.
Liam Fields logical fallacy
Every course I have ever been in has reviewed and expanded upon topics previously learned. Then they introduce the new material. Reteaching old material isn't something "special" that "nice" or "easy" professors do, it's common sense and essential for learning.
JM_Replays I agree it's ridiculous
Liam Fields You've never been to college, have you?
They should've used rate my professor before taking his class.
He is true. You students are lazy and mostly stupid.
@@magnusqwerty stfu you dumbass, you thinking that all minnenials are like this just makes you look like a complete idiot.
Sometimes that's the only professor who teaches the class, or the only class that fits in your schedule.
One of my professors said a great quote “if another professor takes pride in having a low passing rate, They’re a bad teacher. Our job is to teach. And that’s what I take pride in.” Her class was difficult and I had to study hard (ended up with a c+ which I was very happy about since it was a GE), but I’ve always remembered her mentality.

1:06 "Isn't that the job of a student to learn that"
This is exactly the mentality that is destroying the reputation of universities. It is not the job of the student to learn, it is the job of the teacher to teach. So many professors today are lazy and bitter individuals who constantly blame their students for the obvious lack of talent or passion in their classes. And while there is some responsibility on the student to try, if students are not learning, then ultimately, the culpability lies on the teacher who is supposed to be rendering those services.
So many professors have crafted a monstrous ego about them that allows them to forget that college has become so mainstream, that it is no longer "a privilege" to sit and listen to them half-heartedly regurgitate the same diatribes they have repeated ad-nosium for the past decade. They are being paid to render a service to their clients, mainly, to teach them. If they do not learn, it is ultimately the fault of the professor, not the students.
Students learn more from RUclips than from lazy professors. The issue is entirely the professors flaws in teaching
Its actually both. There are both shitty students and shitty teachers, but at the end of the day students are the one who should be putting the effort due to the fact that their field may require that knowledge. A shitty professor doesnt excuse a shitty student.
He should think about the future of these students... And what about the students who didn't do any of this?
Did you really just pull a "think of the children" argument here?
"Haha your argument doesn't work because I compared it to something completely unrelated." - Colt Cooper
Brandon Yoon they should have thought about their future and the other students.it's not the responsibility of the professor to make a college class behave them selves. i.e if you fuck up and do dumb shit, your gonna get hit with some shitty punishments.
Those students can recover their class by going over his head. The students who are the problem, will be identified.
A college is there to follow through with the curriculum, not to make sure you graduate on time.
A students behavior should not ever be used as cause for punishment of others. Students are not there to be used as a lesson to teach a lesson about behaving in class, they are spending their money and time to learn and prepare for their future. Failing goes on your record. I think there should be legal repercussions for any professor punishing a student(s) for the behavior of another
EDIT: People seem to think i'm implying that students who do not behave shouldn't be punished? I am speaking only about students who are doing what they are supposed to do, as this video is about an ENTIRE CLASS BEING FAILED for the actions of a few
These are the kind of professors I hate. If there are students that deserve to get flunked based on performance then flunk them, don't drag everyone. Even if the class average is very low, you still have to pass those who passed even though they just passed by the skin of their teeth. The teachers should stick to the rules that they would have wanted their students to follow as well.
Toribio Hechanova yeah so our generation gets dumber and dumber
My point is, if the passing rate is 60 and a student gets 60, you should pass them regardless of whether or not the class performed well as a whole, or if some other student disrespects or hurt your feelings. Students are graded individually, they do their work individually. Would you have wanted a teacher to flunk you for something you didn't do?
What's the point of a passing mark, if you flunk a student that passes?
You are the very example of what you call "generations gets dumber and dumber".
Toribio Hechanova im wondering are there any way too sue a teacher for poor behaviour or poor Class managment?
Giovanni Corraliza You don’t sue, you appeal to the Dean of your college. From there they can decide if the grade was unfairly given.
Apparently you should have flunked English since you don’t know the appropriate use of "their" and "there"?
Kinda hard to believe that every single student in his class was bad. 🤔
Because there's always that good, quiet student that suffers because the rest of the class is bad. I was always that student so i know how that feels.

Starting to get tired of hearing this shit about Millennials. Every generation had its bad apples. They said the same crap about kids in the 60's with the Hippy movement and every other generation there was. Stop acting like Millennials are worse than any other generation. As far as I've seen, my generation is highly motivated to succeed and to get everything we want out of life, which shouldn't be a bad goal to have. And just because you oldies were fine in your dead-end jobs and stayed in an office for your whole life without complaint doesn't make you 'dedicated' or 'realistic', it makes you a drone who never tried to get any more out of your life than you already had, and now you're miserable so whenever the younger generation asks for reforms, changes to the work environment or to already existing structures, you call us entitled and selfish. We're not selfish, we just want to work in a company or employment that reflects our values and the things we find important. We're not sniffling cry babies (except those SJW's), but we just want to change the world in our own way and as far as I'm concerned that shouldn't be a problem.
FreedomWriter You deserve more fucking likes!!!!!
I agree, and i think it is brave and serves a community well when each person is not forced into a mold, but encouraged to follow their natural talents...
also, in this day an age when business is done in a whole new way and many companies send jobs overseas, you have to adapt and think differently anyway...also many young people have no choice and just like in previous generations, they stay in dead end jobs .. they just have less to show for it... the costs have gone up more than regular inflation and tuition has also risen considerably and not just the regular rise over time, but ridiculously... same with the prices on houses, and bank loans to purchase those are higher than compared to what our parents and grandparents paid, many are predatory and purposefully given out to people who cant afford them as we saw in the housing crisis of 2008, and recession. not only that but many millenials statistically are stuck paying rent longer for a few factors, cost, debt from school, loans having higher interest rates, etc. etc. etc.,
speaking of the housing crisis and recession of 2008, guess what trump just repealed dodd frank and the fiduciary rule, basically the very laws put in place to protect us from another recession or depression, and when the billionaire CEOs arent even pulling politiicans strings anymore but are actually in the presidents cabinet, well its no surprise that they enact legislation that allows the banks to police themselves...with people like this in charge which has become a sad joke over the decades, to now when its just embarassing, its no wonder that young people are disillusioned and cynical and not willing to just sit there and take it, people of all ages are tired of being taken advantage of, and of paying higher tax rates than billionaires.. like donald trump who hten proceeds to brag about not giving back to the country he professes to love so much, same way he weaseled his way into 5 deferments so that he wouldnt have to serve this country.. but we all know what he has done by this point and have heard his words from his own mouth, so for the cult trump supporters who blindly brainwash themselves at this point doing mental gymnastics to defend the indefensible while he takes advantage of their stupidity and gullibility, a youtube comment i doubt will get through that thick layer of cognitive dissonance and willful stupidity...so back to the subject at hand
I am not making excuses for an entire generation, but i think that many older people who were able to pay their way through college without a huge debt weighing them down, who were able to be a direct hire instead of a temp (which is the only way some companies hire now since they don't want to be responsible for insuring employees, etc.) and they were able to stay with that job for years and move up the ladder instead of on average statistically people now have at least 5 jobs in their first decade of work, some have more, and uneducated have even more...there were many advantages of growing up during the economically positive years in the states, for example in the fifties... this barely begins to broach the subject, look at the statistics, not to mention the corporations and banks who play puppet master with politicians and enact whatever laws serve their agenda with no concern for the people...
..statistically speaking many people are staying on their parents healthcare plans for much longer because its is so expensive, thats why the provisions that you can stay on until age 26 if you are a student was so popular, and statistically speaking as well, many baby boomers have both adult children in their 20s and their retired parents either living with them or receiving more than 50% of their needs met by them, so its not only effecting millenials.. their parents often cant make ends meet and rely on family as well as they age and have medical bills, etc.
in america at least, with the current clown administration attempting to pass shit bills like the AHCA, if they do manage to ever succeed at anything, will only make it worse, ...
.....but its hard to change things for the better, its much easier to complain about it and to blame your personal perception of the state of things on among other things like illegal immigrants or even legal immigrants or someone or even a group of people with a different skin color than you or a different gender or sexual preference or religion or lack of religion or a vague idea of a group of people who have different political beliefs who people take one of the worst weirdest most extreme people who call themselves some label like an inbred backwoods redneck racist reich-winger or a sjw feminazi safe space promoting "bug spray is murder" liberal, for example...,
kids who are younger and in many cases are unexperienced (by this i dont mean necessarily innocence if that even applies to today's younger generations lol but i mean life experience).. admittedly can be naive or idealistic...which isn't always a bad thing...consider the source as well, the low investment in public schools, the constant infamous participation trophy trop helicopter parenting trope...the greatest generation was at a time when america was viewed as the pre-eminent world superpower, in manufacturing, in many ways...and the economy was thriving then...it had recovered after the crash and the 2nd world war revitalized industries and opened opportunities to women, etc......but ffs its like that with every generation...and with every generation i will admit that i have noticed a trend with some people of all ages, but younger people in particular that they do feel entitled...there are plenty of douchebags of all ages to be fair and while the percentage of jaden smith-types saying stupid shit thinking they sound profound tend to be younger, well thats not always true lol but in my own personal experience, i cant speak to anyone else's obviously but i have definitely heard the constant narrative that all people under 30 are shiftless, not willing to work hard, directionless without ambition, etc. is just BS, but personally i just take it as someone who doesn't understand the changing world, yes it has gotten shittier in many ways, but the kids who think the world owes them something are a symptom, not the cause... just ignore it, like an obsessive old man screaming "you damn kids get off my lawn" when one kid steps a toe off the sidewalk... to be fair most people ignore old folks and treat them all as inconsequential and senile and insult them, so many people have it hard... :( don't let what anyone says ever bother you though just saty true to yourself as cheesy and cli'che as that sounds, be honest with yourself and others, and keep that ambition and work hard towards those dreams, and remember, a thousand failures are just steps to finding the way that leads to success, just like it a scientific experiment, you have a hypothesis, test it, and test it, until you find a way to make it work or it becomes a theory, and is eventually proven or not proven, i would wish you luck but make your own luck, son :)

They have no understanding of how to make the best of nothing... and they have no understanding of true character challenges. You guys act like the damn seagals on finding nemo... Moine! Moine!

There are 10 billion people on this planet that are better than you. The sooner you humble yourself to that realization the sooner you can unlock your true potential.

I'm a senior lecturer at a University. You need to take control of your class, otherwise students will walk all over you. Just maintain a consistent standard, be kind, but not nice, do not tolerate ill behaviour in your class, grade everyone on the same basis, no exceptions. Do that, and there's no need to fail a whole class - those that deserve a high grade will get it, those that deserve to fail will automatically fail. I've never had a problem.
I am curious how one can be kind without being nice.
@@g_eddie Kind and nice enough that you are understanding and give them the benefit of the doubt, but not to nice that you let them get away with things.

"Large majority of students..." so did you lump everyone into one basket?
Prof for over 15yrs here. You cannot "flunk" someone in the same way that you cannot legitimately "pass" someone. Grades are a result of the student's performance. There have been plenty of students (esp grad students) I've personally disliked but they earned that "A+" and others I thought were great people and personally felt sorry for them when they flunked.
100%, I agree. As a senior engineer, I face the same thing with formal evaluations of junior engineers. You judge their performance, not "they pissed me off" or "I don't like them" or whatever. This prof is worried about how and what they learned in previous classes. Why? That's a waste of time and energy. If they didn't retain previous class material, that's not your concern. It's on them to go back on their own and re-learn the material or they fail, it's nothing on the professor. Sink or swim, it's on the student to rise to the challenge or not.
This prof is passing judgement on the entire class based on how knowledgeable some or most of them seem in class, and conduct of a few of them. That is assinine. I don't know why you'd take the time and energy to hand-wring over that. If they're overly disruptive or physically threatening, jettison the offender immediately. Otherwise, just assign them the work and administer tests like you normally would. If they can't hack it, then they fail. If they step up to it and do the work, you assign them the appropriate grade.
I couldn't find further media on this, which tells me that this guy got severely overruled by his department chair and/or the university and is out of a job. Just a guess, but I find no follow-up.
Bad thing is that the good ones get punished and have this on their record for no reason at all. It's stupid to carpet bomb everyone because you're pissed. That's how an educator acts. They are supposed to dig out the diamonds from the coal.
One bad apple in the barrel and you throw them all.

This story screams “ok boomer”.
Ok looser
As an early millennial (born in '87) I'd like to state my input.
I attended a school where in the upper classes some of the students did not know how to do some of the things the professor asked for as basic (similar to referenced in the video). I knew them because I already worked in the field but I agreed with them. They were never taught the things they should have been before that class. I never said anything in the lower classes because it didn't affect me or I didn't know it wasn't going to be taught later. The students are absolutely right to contest if their prerequisites from the same college or university didn't prepare them for his class.
That being said, I get what he says about the schools moving towards a business model and looking for student approval vs progression. All students should be graded. And no cheating is ever acceptable.
My school looked into what was being taught at the lower levels and found issues. It's no fault of the students for complaining that their lower level classes didn't prepare them for the upper level classes (within the same education system).
Failed the entire class? I'd refuse to pay for that bullshit and get in touch with the student loan holder to charge it back. It is doubtful every single student in that class didn't meet the requirements. Seems like a bullshit professor who is on the bandwagon of "all the millennials are lazy." The school should get rid of him.
Alex_2259 Few bad apples spoiled the bunch.
I'd assume the massive majority was either unable to perform in the class or was causing distractions i can't blame the guy for that.
It's basic work and his class was supposed to be advanced form.
It's like you can't even do simple fractions + - x etc but you take a math class.
Dave Vd that's not what's ridiculous about this. Its the fact that he flunked everyone. Getting into grad school is near impossible if you have flunked a class. There had to be kids there that cared, were advised to go into the class without the pre reqs like he said and didnt know what to do. They shouldn't have been flunked but just dropped. However, we need to know if those students who did care dropped the class in the 2 day free period to drop. Who knows
Dave Vd how can you say a few bad apples spoiled the bunch? That class was probably $10,000. Fail the students who can’t pass, and pass those who can.
+Dave Vd "Few bad apples spoiled the bunch" would you say the same if the topic was about, say, police?

What a bunch of crap. College is different than what it used to be. Education as an intellectual pursuit for the sake of improvement is a thing of the past: now it's just job training. Stop applying your old cultural standard to a group of new people.
And remember, _Baby boomers,_ the Millennial "entitlement" that you are witnessing is the natural result of those selfish, short-sighted, and often jingoist policies that came from your washed-up political and economic approaches. And you are no different. If you were 22 right now in 2018, you would be just another basement-dweller wearing skinny jeans and staring into a phone that's too big to fit in your tight pockets. But at least your ethical intuitions would be a tiny bit more in line with scientific consensus, so cut humanity a break- we're trying to improve.

"What's with these millennials?"
Well, gosh golly gee it can't be because we live in a world that's going down the tubes, we have to pay 20,000+ to go to college only to get a minimum wage job if lucky, and we can't even graduate because we have professors like this guy who fail us because of other teachers who haven't taught us correctly.

Students ARE the customers. I've seen quite a few professors, especially ones from other countries, who walked in and moved with a certain notoriety like they should be butt-kissed whenever they wanted. Many of the younger students who were fresh out of high school were intimidated by this but the rest of the adult, working class students, many who had families and careers of their own, weren't. That doesn't mean we didn't show respect for them and treat them fairly, but some of these professors, they really have a God complex.
"What's with these millennials?" She's probably reading from a news screen, but still a generalization because of the behavior of a minority of people. If she thought of that on her own, I'm curious what she was like in her twenties.

Horseshit. Students can be entitled and coddled and refuse to learn. Failing such an attitude is justified.

The grades of those students reflects more on the teachers ability to do their job, than the students themselves. This is disgusting
"Might make you smile"
Make me smile about what? A man potentially destroying innocent students' careers because he's an incapable teacher?
"They could not even perform very simple break even analysis." "Isn't it the job of the students to learn that?"
Well guess who should have taught them. And no, while the students should be able to learn it, it just shows your incapability of teaching the class that NONE of them could figure it out. You need to *help* your students rather than just expect them to know everything.
"What's with these millenials?"
I'm not even a millenial and this makes me mad. If you're blaming all the students then you're the problem, it's not an issue of generational differences.
I haven't started college yet, but if the professors are like this then I'm screwed. Sounds like the school was on the side of the students, so that's good.

The teacher didn't need to flunk them. He could have just dropped them if they didn't have the prerequisites for his course. But oh yeah, he wouldn't have gotten paid for that course without any students.
are you sure about just dropping them? I was on the quarter system and we had a week to drop and 2 or 3 to withdraw from a course taking a "W" grade on the record. And can a professor just drop someone out of a class they paid for?
At the quarterly public college I went to, yes. I got into a class that I didn't have the prerequisites thus it was obviously too difficult yet I stuck it out and got a "D". But the prof up unto the 5th week offered to drop any of us and to just bring the drop slip. I should have taken her up on her offer than to have that needless "D" on my transcript and affecting my GPA.
You don’t get paid based on the number of students you have or courses you’re teaching. You get paid a fixed salary. Especially if you’re on a tenure track or tenured already as there’s research requirements.

Trying to lump an entire group in any situation is an awful idea. How about act like a rational fucking professional to root out the problems instead of trying to flunk the people that are paying you. Christ, teachers are incentivized to just not give a fuck in our system, its abhorrent.
How about the kids start acting like mature adults like the law says they are instead of being loud and obnoxious when they're suppose to be paying attention. Kids need to learn that actions have consequences.
There isn't a "law" defining how a person behaves in the United States, its a factor in why we don't live under totalitarianism. Of course the behavior of these students in a college environment is not acceptable, but you should try to empathize with these kids in the sense that they are placing themselves in thousands of dollars of debt and are in a perpetual state of stress, trying to get the credentials they need to sustain themselves in our fairly unfair economic society. Even if they didn't take the prerequisites to the class, the professor, as I said, ought to have a polite and professional mindset, perhaps rerouting or taking effort in reforming his curriculum, but he'd rather make more money and whole-sale flunk the class, which if 100% were being extremely immature to warrant a behavioral grade, I call bullshit.
Nick Werner
That's the wrong kind of thinking. Ass backwards in fact . He's a college professor not a kindergarten teacher.
Holy fuck, I can’t possibly see why this was a logical move. You can’t tell me that every single student in the class was lacking maturity. Sure there may be a bad apples, but why punish the ones who actually came to class and did what they were supposed to do? I would’ve sued this guy and he’s just one of many problems in some school systems.
Well I have seen classes where the best and brightest still came across as special needs students with behaviour problems.
Actually, Mikey, I think it's your attitude that's "just one of many problems in some school systems." When I returned to college to upgrade for med school, I took first-year physiology. We had a test where 25% of the questions were on material that hadn't been covered. Guess how many people out of nearly 300 went to the prof's office hours to complain. Just me. Probably because I was older; probably because my grades mattered to me - a lot. And at the start of the next class, the prof announced that he'd only adjusted one student's grade - mine - saying, "I guess it didn't matter to the rest of you." You snooze, you lose.
If I'd been in Professor Horwitz's class, I might not have flunked, and not just because I know basic college math, but because I'd have gone to his office - in person, imagine that! - and asked for an opportunity to show him what I'd learned. I wouldn't have "emailed" him (or worse still, the administration) some whiny complaint, or started some whiny Facebook petition. I'd have gone in-person - to show respect - and there's a fair chance I'd have gotten respect in return. Can't you hear what else the professor's saying? It wasn't just the class's complete ignorance that did them in - it was their lack-of-respect; they were making fun of him. And if you think that's OK, then I can already guess at your age, and the "generation" you're a part of.
Apparently they were.

What's your business? So I don't get any products or services from a prick. In business, you don't act like a child.....well that's IF you have a business. Most of the time, when people talk like they way you do, they do not have much in their life to brag about, then lie about their life so much that they believe themselves.
I don’t think I’ve met a single person in college that thinks they should pass just because they are paying for school. If that is any college student’s mentality, then they will flunk out naturally!!! We straight up treat college like a fight for our lives. What a ridiculous assumption by this lady.
"Isn't it the job of those students to learn that?" Isn't the jobs of those professors to teach that? If your ENTIRE class is struggling with the concepts you are supposed to teach them, then maybe they're not the problem.
maybe so but i think its more complicated then that. i do not agree with this but it feels like he expects students to know certain concepts and to actually be passionate about learning this stuff. i think everyone is kind of to blame teachers schooling students etc etc.
I'm in a program like this right now.. Honestly it sounds like this professor was not communicating with his program very well... Students involved in a Masters Management Program like this are highly driven, highly intelligent, and willing to work. There is no way that they were lazy or didn't have the needed skills before they got to his class. The issue honestly, had to have been that the program was in disarray. There is NO WAY the ENTIRE class deserved to be flunked. From what I've gathered from updates to this story, the professor was forcibly retired from the classroom and the dean of the program took over the teaching of the class.
They was cheating in the prerequisites classes and had no knowledge of the material he was teaching in the advanced class. He was just a no non sense, really heavy on students learning type of instructor rather than a lieniant, I don't care, instructor that tried to be cool. We need more teachers like this who teach!! Highschool and college. This would definitely weed out the fakes who are there to play from the ones who has the thirst to prosper.
@@df27dSo you agree with him failing everybody instead of just the people who cheated?
Lets run our schools like a business. But then blame the "millennial's" when they act like customers and not students. I thought everything would be better is it was run like a business? Who do you blame fox news? Who promotes the "Privatize everything" (except cost, socialize costs)? Didn't you once run an entire show called "Privatize everything?" When profits are involved EVERYTHING else comes second. Blame yourselves.
I feel for the international students in that classroom. They’re constantly on thin ice with their education visas and a failed class would melt that ice
For those who don’t know, these students probably learned the concept of breakeven analysis way back in high school. The formula is Breakeven units = fixed costs divided by (selling price per unit minus variable cost per unit).
The denominator is simply just how much you will gain from selling per unit. Use fixed costs to divided by that gives you the breakeven number of units.
Even if they had basic knowledge in math and 0 in economics, they should be able to derive the formula from their head. Even easier than the SAT math section.
When I first started this video all I could think was, "They dabbed on him and he wasn't having it".
fuck
Ehhhhh. Nobody really talk in class though. Well at my college, we come in, sit and listen
"What's with these millennials?" says the Fox anchor, knowing that she has just uttered the most "Fox News phrase" in history.
Luke Jacobs I'm a "millennial" I hate most of my generation. Millennials suck
Best part is if we are talking today millennials have nothing to do with it, millennials are Seniors and Grad students below that its all Gen-Z
Goofy ass Millennials?? We're superior to your generation in every way you could think of.
You wish you were my generation, the women are hotter, everyones smarter and we have more advantages in life.
Suck it, you old fuck.
Millennials can barely read and write. It's fucking sad. They don't know what a fucking screwdriver is. They're afraid of power tools. They cry when you tell them to take out the garbage. The only thing they're good at is doing drugs and turning the country into a communist shithole.
Says who? You? You're a fucking moron, Paul.
If the students weren’t prepared, cancel the course, don’t scar their records by flunking them. He admitted himself that they weren’t prepared, they were saying rude things because they were frustrated at the situation they were in and they were cheating because they were trying to survive the class he already said they weren’t ready for. I’m not saying what was said and done was right on their behalf either, but it is very telling. “If you’re not doing good, you’re a bad student, if you’re doing good, you’re cheating.”
My professor told me about a student of hers who was elderly, he had a heart attack and showed up the next day to ask to have more time to do the assignment, and another professor didn’t allow them to do just that, saying it was no excuse.
Giving this behavior attention with a news report is a horrible idea, especially by praising it. Shouldn’t fail a whole class like that, ever.
What a thoroughly FOX News story. "Damn kids, these days! Get off my lawn!"

Sean O'Skea This was a beautiful comment lol.
One of the Best comments ever
Well, the gen x kids do want to pop pills and go to raves, so they can feel cool and post it on their facebook.
So fox shouldn't have even covered this story? Are you stupid?
dar'man beskar Ordo - youll never make it with that attitude. I can tell youre a sore ass loser... get over yourself
Just read an article about this incident. The professor DID talk to university administrators about the behavourial and academic issues in the class BEFORE he flunked the entire class. In that discussion he said he was happy to continue teaching the few students who were actually behaving well and keeping up with the material but he was through with the majority who were misbehaving and not academically prepared for the course. The admin said no dice, he would have to continue teaching all students enrolled in the class. So it appears he acted out of pure frustration. Perhaps admin should of been more supportive and responsive when he first alerted them to the issue - but then again perhaps they're only interested in keeping their sources of income happy.
Your entire passage is full of contradicting sentences and blatant hypocrisy.
"He wanted to teach, he flunked everyone regardless."
🤡
You're a clown after all.
“they shouldve known that before” this is the problem with college professors...
Professors like that make me angry. No, do you job and teach your class what they need to know. Offer solutions to getting help if they don't know. Just do something. What makes me even more angry is that this nonsense is excused because they can "make their own policies"
It’s like these professors don’t realize that students have all these other classes they have to try and retain information from.
A view into college life today she said. So…
Teachers not being able to do their jobs, then are shocked when students pay ungodly amounts of money to basically learn nothing, and then are upset at the teacher about it?
“College today” sounds so fun.
Failed them after they paid thousands of dollars for the course... nice job 🤦🏼♂️
But as a business model,students are customers rather than students.Show me the money get a loan and drop out
2 sides to every story i want to hear what some of the students have to say
@@danmc3959 so true
Why a face palm? You have prove his point that people feel entitled they should pass a course just because they paid for it. You pay school to teach you, not to give you a degree.
@@mikedavie_00 ***you have proven/proved*** / The professor noted that a small number of students were performing well in the class and doing what they were supposed to do. Therefore, assuming that the students who were performing well were doing so without cheating, how would it be ethical to fail them because of the behavior of the other students who were performing poorly and misbehaving? That is what my comment seeks to shed light on: the students who took their education seriously, worked hard in the class, and PAID for it, should not be failed based on factors that are out of their control, such as their peer's behavior. Students should be evaluated on their individual behavior and performance, especially when they are paying for the opportunity to be evaluated as such.
That story didn't make me smile
Why would i smile at a deed of extreme corruption, abuse of power and complete cringe
And a professor flunking our future in an overpriced class for no reason basically.
It's always the boomers
He gave the reason
They did not had the tools to pass. He said it wasn’t the behavior. But the realization that these students were not prepared to take this class.
If a whole bunch of 8th graders go to a college calculus class and they don’t know basic algebra to be able to perform calculus problems do you pass them?
You're right not only is it overpriced, but it's fraudulent since he failed the entire class.
Schools need more professors like this guy, and snowflake college students need to be told that the purpose of college is to learn not party.
Eugene Tavares Sorry you hate your life.
As a college professor, I have my own strategy for the case of misbehaving class. There are three steps, and I am proud to tell you that #3 was never implemented for over 20 years of teaching.
Step one: address the class and remind students that they paid a lot of money to be there and that bad behavior is a sign of disrespect not only to a teacher but to their peers who are there to learn.
Step two: select a couple of misbehaving individuals and respectfully offer them to leave the class. They will leave or apologize.
Step three: call the campus police.
"A view into college life as it is today." These news stations are so ridiculous. That was only one college class.
Played this on auto. As soon as I heard "what's wrong with the millennials", I checked back to see if it's a Fox News video that's playing. Apparently, I'm not wrong.
Whats the deal with Fox and Millenials??? *Seinfeld music*
Maybe this professor should take a stats class. The probability that every student in the class did not understand is highly unlikely. To flunk legitimate students is a crime to our educational system.
Exactly what I was thinking. Either skewed or pronounced on either side or whatever variation... large groups follow the bell curve.
What's a bigger crime is students in an advanced course not understanding basic business concepts and expecting to be successful.
JustWinBabee
Yes it is a crime and they got the failing grade they deserved. The other crime, is the teacher actually also failing those who were performing excellently i.e. the top performers of the class.
They fucking deserved a failing grade. ALL OF THEM
Tharun Sankar how would you know?
There is a big problem here. The grade that someone is given in a course should be based purely on their results in assessments compared to the minimum acceptable standard. If students are disruptive etc, then they should be reported for academic misconduct and the appropriate response determined, which may be exclusion from the class and hence fail. Unfortunately, in a lot of universities standards have dropped, but it is not something an individual academic should decide to rectify. At the University where I worked there was a high failure rate in one subject and the head (equivalent to chair) was replaced as he should have identified that there was a problem. One problem, that says something about the uni, was that we lost International students, and that meant a couple of million dollars.
As a college instructor I would NOT allow a few bad students to ruin it for the entire class. However, colleges do need to back the instructor when there is a difficult student causing problems. My college had a student throw a chair at an instructor recently and the college sided with the student. The student was allowed to stay as if nothing happened.
What did the professor do for him to throw the chair?
@@adamfattal468 she refused to change his grade
@@carlcounts1 Wtfffff
@@carlcounts1 Basically antisocial behavior being excused. And I generally tend to side more with students because I find university to be nothing but a product (with a delusional price to value ratio)
