Failure is failure. But universities arent stupid, they know that complete retards dont make it university and that their reason for failing may be for other reasons not dealing with academics. If they continue to fail, then the institution tells the student that this probably isnt whats fit for them and gives them their thank letter.

Here, a re-take would replace a previous failure. But if you fail the retake, then yeah...totally pointless. I replaced a D with a B last semester...NIU allows you do to it a couple times. Gave my GPA a lil boost.

It's a community college -- they offer 2 year Associate Degrees. Right around the corner from her house....
Her step-dad is is pretty upset -- he's had a very hard year with 2 of his own kids. He got her this scholarship (paid for EVERYTHING) thru his job & he's pretty upset. Her mom is freaking out....
u just found this out after a year of college?jenscats5 said:
shiiz.
most kids fail their first year of college supposedly anyhow, so i say make her get a job beat the shit out of her and make her feel really crappy, but in the long run give her one more chance to prove herself (not sure on her background and past shenanagins, but from a neutral standpoint, thats my suggestion).
btw, is she hot?

She's young, they do dumb things. IMO the worst thing you can do is to make it harder for her to go to college. I had friends that their parents did that to them and they never went anywhere while others parents stuck by their side through the bad grades and they turned out great and pulled it out of the mud. Being disappointed is one thing but making her work in the real world instead of keep working at it in college is nuts, seriously, she needs an education in this world to make it and Im sure someone will retort oh she blew it, she should have to suffer blah. If my kid ever blew it like that, Id redouble my efforts in keeping them in college not flipping burgers somewhere wasting their youth when they should be in college classrooms.
