    The above formula for paragraph structure saved me a lot of time. Sophmore english teacher stubbornly forced our class to use it and it was probably the best writing lesson I ever received.

        No, they have to wait three weeks for their next chance to hand it in. The rules are very clear on that and the impact is not too bad.

      There have been too many fucking times where I worked on an assignment, finished it, forgot to submit and then didn’t remember that until midnight. Ive made it with seconds to spare before but I’ve also missed it by tens of minutes. There was at least one time (that I can think of) where I got a zero for submitting single-digit amounts of minutes late before and the professor wasn’t hearing any of it. I think it was either 12:03 or 12:05.
