    “Your sculpture is fine, Sally. But you were supposed to make a diorama. You even wrote down the assignment.”

    Great arguing for the case for reassessment Sally. One of my teachers always encouraged debate on marks, but added to consideration before any student formally requested a re-mark: “Be aware the reassessed work has an equal chance of being returned with a higher, the same, or a lower mark.” Funnily enough few students took up the re-mark offer; the teacher did rapidly correct any gross errors in marking, but otherwise, we students all seemed to think the downside risk was too high…

    “If you prick us do we not bleed?

    If you tickle us do we not laugh?

    If you poison us do we not die?

    And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?"

    Otter: “But you can’t hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few, sick twisted individuals. For if you do, then shouldn’t we blame the whole fraternity system? And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn’t this an indictment of our educational institutions in general? I put it to you, Greg – isn’t this an indictment of our entire American society? Well, you can do whatever you want to us, but we’re not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!”

    She gave her an A just to shut her up. Good for her, grading art in school is idiotic.

    It wasn’t till I had been an adult for quite a while that I realised, unlike my parents, many if not most of my classmates’ takehome art projects were done by their moms.

    You’re right Sally, you can share your C grade with whomever you choose.

    Well, considering how much grease this squeaky wheel is going to get I foresee a trip to the dry cleaners (and a new hanger).

    A squeaky wheel that gets the grease is also the first one that gets replaced.

    When I was in grade school, it was unheard of to question a grade. Nowadays, I suppose it’s much different….kind of sad in a way

    Yes, you can grade art, there are objective criteria, and principals of design. Indeed on the take home aspect of parents helping though.

    I don’t know about the grease Sally but you earn high marks in law and philosophy. And don’t take it so hard—had your piece of coat-hanger sculpture been submitted by Picasso or Dubuffet it would have landed in a museum of modern and contemporary art!

    How do you judge a kid’s coathanger sculpture?

    Over the complete course of my education, I have twice gotten a teacher to change, not a grade, but a question that was marked wrong. I think it was third or fourth grade and the true/false question was “Children are gullible T/F”. I circled “F”. In class, I spoke up, saying “I’m not gullible!” The other was a Night-Class “refresher” course in Assembler Programming. I don’t remember the exact question, but it was about the “XOR” command. It just so happened that, at work, I had just worked on a program that used that command in a different way than in the question. When I showed this to the teacher, he changed his “wrong” designation.

    I never liked art class in grade school because I, like Sally, could not perform well enough for a high grade. I think all art/music classes should be graded pass/fail, and not based on ability, but effort. Same with P.E. classes.

    I have no artistic talent. I’ve always thought it unfair to judge my talent in art when I was in school.
