A: Excuse me, Professor. I have to talk to you about why my homework didn't get done. B: What happened that you didn't get it done? A: I had to watch a football game instead. B: Well, you had more than one day; couldn't you have fit it in on another day? A: Yes, I think so. B: Either way, I only allow one missed assignment per semester. When will you be turning the make-up in? A: I'll make it up next week. B: Fine, but it cannot happen again if you want an âAâ in the class. A: OK, I can do that. B: Remember that you are in college now, not high school.
