The response was, "It's ok, it's my senior year and I just want to finish on a high note."
But is the real world out there going to be as nurturing as you? What happens when they hit the real world and the boss demands standards they are not used to? School is easy. You can do the class over. You can make bargains with the instructor. When I lose a client, there is little chance of a "do over". He might not care about my bad day, the fight with the wife, the spoiled brat I have for a child, etc, etc.
