Students Suing Over Failed Class
from the fun-URLs dept
I've seen this story a few times already: some students are upset that they failed the MSCE class they took and are so upset they are suing the school. They claim they were told the only prereqs were the ability to point and click, and that just wasn't true. What I found especially interesting though, was the URL that excite used to list this story. "Odd-Students?". Think they're biased? Nah...Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
