Maybe not to the extent of what's alleged in the article, but I'm referring more to "nudging" grades in the right direction to protect eligibility, palming people relatively small amounts of cash, etc.
Without going back and reading it again, but wasn't the grade nudge an attendance portion of the overall grade. And if its one of the classes I think it is, you can go from pass to fail with 4 or 5 missed attendances. He still passed the knowledge portion with a b. if you bitch to the right people most could get that changed in some way.

Third lamest. First is "You are angry" or some derivative. Second is "You're obsessed with [insert team here]."
It's pretty hilarious to see someone who has used the lamest retorts in all of Retortdom get on a soapbox about the "too many posts" retort. I know why you did, though. It stung, because you're obsessed with Bama, post on this site rather than live, and you're fricking furious.
Really dude, you should have taken my initial advice and calmed the frick down. It's a message board.

Not even close. The always embarrassing "you're obsessed with (fill in the blank)" destroys everything.
Or the always awesome "[insert first three letters of the team]sessed" comment.
That's on the long list of things this site has been run into the ground through overuse.

Personally, I think HIS particular case may be entirely legitimate. Giving someone an F for poor attendance when everything else was fine to good is a bit extreme, in my opinion. I'm just saying it wouldn't surprise me that "nudging" beyond this kind of case (which seems legitimate) is going on. But I'm not trying to knock Auburn or anyone in particular, really.

I took a poll, the results of which were overwhelming that you should just settle down and that your rage is inappropriate. I will grant that this poll was unscientific and only had one respondent, but I highly value that particular respondent's opinion. So, yeah, you're angry, proven by SCIENCE.
