Recently, my college English Professor assigned a group research paper. Groups of four were to form and write three pages on how certain historical figures affected events following their rise to power (the possible subjects were part of a list).
So after about four days of consistently meeting and spending about five hours working, my team finished our paper on Saturday, and one team member took our handwritten semi-final draft and promised to type it up so we could turn it in on Monday (TODAY).
This was the last any of us saw him. Each member of our team has frantically been calling him wondering why he wasn't in class this morning.
The professor doesn't believe us (the remaining three) and has accused us of trying to find an easy way to get an extension.
We showed him our rough draft and research notes (what was left of them), and he says we can turn in the paper tomorrow with 10 points taken off.
I do not think this is far because we broke our backs putting in a full effort.
