Hi all,

One thing I've run into several times as a faculty member at a for-profit college is that students will tell me, "But I didn't pay to get an F!" They honestly feel that, since they paid, they should pass. I often have to sit down and talk to them about why they are failing, what they can do to pass, and then suggest resources. (It tends to occur when a student chooses to ignore their work and outreach attempts, but then shows up on the last few days and thinks they can complete all their work *right then!*)

Has anyone else found this entitlement in their students? How do you handle it?

Thanks,
Kate
