You might DM too much because you think youre the master of the universe. Im assuming you were homeschooled by flatearthers, and thats cool you had a good experiance but that doesnt mean other people didnt have bad ones.

There definately good reasons to allow making judgement calls, but I wouldnt be complaining if that all they use that freedom for.
Most of the time if you asked for some exception they would allow you to drop the class without issue. So they wont break the rubric to make the class easier, but they will to make the class harder. And thats what I take issue with.
On one of my finals the professor said “you all did too well on the midterm, so I changed the final to be on meaningless details in the reading to test your comprehension and only your final grades matter” so we could fail despite learing everything we set out to learn.
I had an engineering ethics professor tell me I could I turn in the first assignment late on the second day of class, but after the final she said my grade we entirely dependant on the first assignment and it was late so I got zero points and failed the class. They have a quota of students to fail and they just pick people to fail and come up with bullshit after. They use their unchecked liberties to screw the students out of their money and nothing more in my experience.

This is whats wring with the world, people will come out of the woods and defend the most batshit insane things…
Why would they need to change how the class is graded after you took the class? The asnwer is simply to fuck you out of money. There is no educational purpose, just a monetary one.
Just because its reguarly done does not mean it should be normalized.
What would you do if youre boss said the purpose of your salary is not to show you how much you will make by the end of the year, but to motivate you to work, and then doesnt pay you for months of work… would you have the same naive outlook?

Yeah, I had teachers change the rubric on the day of the final and even after and the deans at UCSB didnt care at all. Teachers can do just about anything under the guise of education…
