<p>Hi. I have a question. I e-mailed my professor asking for an extension before my final paper was due, but the prof never answered my e-mail. I ended up sending him the paper a week and a half after it was due but I got an automated reply saying he was on vacation until the start of the new semester. Do you think he will have given me an Incomplete or an F? Was it his responsibility to answer me, or was it okay for him to ignore my first e-mail asking for an extension? Are professors allowed to fail students in these circumstances if they want to? (I had about a B+ without counting the final paper.) </p>
<p>Any insights would be appreciated.</p>
<p>Happy new year.</p>
