Q: Professor calling me a different name twice. Is this legal to where I win and university loses. Please advice. ASAP plse
Professor put different names on the comment area with a grade. Is it mind or others? I got a grade that I do not deserve. The professor will not entertain changing the final grade and so I am trying from this angle to get my grade higher. Ethical or legal do I have a case to win or lose? What I can I do the when appeal process is very hard?
A: This is an internal university matter, not a legal matter. If you believe the professor made an error and gave you someone else's grade, you may be able to appeal the grade through the university. That can be very difficult; however, as the professor will most likely say it was just a typo and you got the grade you deserved.
