<Three strikes and you are out professor!!!!> Not anymore. It's 5 strikes at least. Many state universities have now instituted "course forgiveness" programs, whereby a student may repeat a course to get a higher grade and the old one is expunged from the student's record. To qualify you must have a D or worse in the course, C's are not forgiven. So with these modern rules and students taking 5 years to do 4 year's work, we should allow the professor at least 4 strikes on the price of NG, or "more fairly" 5 and forget about past mistakes. It's the new American way. wg
