Is having a bad teacher REALLY an excuse?

However, I would not blame low grades on professors. (A) The entire class had to put up with the same professor, and there were most certainly students who did earn good grades. (B) Most students encounter both easy and harsh graders over time. Over the course of a college career, these effects should average out. I would never blame a low GPA on my professors.

What if the professor fails half the class (and doesn’t curve upward)?

I haven’t had this situation, but I’ve heard stories.
