My absent-minded professor!

[Chocoholic]

My professor had the NERVE to misplace my final report before she even corrected and recorded it, so now I have an incomplete grade for that class. GRRR!!!!!! I can just print the report out and give it to her again and get my grade, but I'm still annoyed.

Has this ever happened to anybody?

Bummer, WingsFan.... that's never happened to me personally, but it has happened to people in my classes before. Although usually the prof. knows they lost the paper before the end of the term, so the people had time to turn in copies so they wouldn't get an incomplete.

It's a pain in the butt, but just be glad we live in the computer age where we can just print it out again. Could you imagine if it had been hand written or typed on a typewriter? :eek:

My high school Chemistry teacher lost one of my labs and I had really, really bad notes. The rewrite of that one was not fun. Now, I make copies of important papers that I do not use my computer for. This past fall my history professor lost my works cited page, but since he lost half the classes it wasn't a big deal. Some professors really are the "Absent-Minded Professor".

Note to self: Save and make copies of everything you turn in to your professors when you get to college.

Thanks for the tip;)
