How about I didn't receive any emails whatsoever and now receive one that states," you must turn in grades by Friday at 5 p.m." Um, I'm not getting paid, you have communicated no information and grades are usually do Saturday by 12:00. I have another full-time, paying, stable job so you'll get them when I can. How about an "I'm sorry" or "Thanks for your hard work for the past 10 years?" Ugh.

As a former Academic Director, I know for a fact that it is stated in the Letter of Appoinment (the contract adjuncts sign when agreeing to teach a class) submitting mid-term and final grades are part of the package. You agreed to the terms of the contract. Regardless of how horrible DCEH is - do what is morally right for the students. They are the ones who will ultimately suffer.....
Get ur grades turned in- dont complain.
Help out the students who need the class to graduate or so they have a shot of transferring it.
I like to think that we are human beings with a conscience first, please do what needs to be done to help these students. Students paid a lot for the 11 week/6 week class and they are getting 2 week less of studio instruction than what they paid for.
Let's not be so selfish.
OP is a pot stirrer. Was there a pay glitch? Yes for SOME adjuncts. However, it was rectified. I know. The glitch happened to me.
And honestly, with an attitude like that, it's no wonder online instructors get a bad rap. Half committed, half assing a job because it's your side gig. Do us a favor. Quit and devote your sh--ty attitude to your day job. You were never here for the students anyway.
Everyone is getting 100%.
At least it might help them with transfer.
done, and done.

Another snob trying to correct someone’s grammar while making errors in the correction. Loser. Get a life!!
Are you sure you're a professor? I believe the correct term is "due" not "do"
If you want to be taken seriously as an educator, I suggest you proofread more often
Or you could not be an a--hole and put grades in for the students to help them out for transfer credits (maybe) your post just showed us the teacher you are ( I used to work for this school and to be honest the teachers were bigger jokes than the students they made us push through)
1ghq me either
Yes please! Then cease working as an adjunct!
Come on, the grades are for the students to transfer not DCEH. Please turn them in by the deadline
Getting grades in is not that big of a deal, especially for an adjunct that teaches one or two classes. You should be thinking about the students at this time if you were any kind of teacher.
Are you people serious? YOu're not supporting this guy 100%? YOU are the ones who killed this school, expecting a teacher to jump through hoops who has not been paid? I wouldn't turn ANY grades or attendance in until I was paid.
you are a university instructor and don't know the spelling of do vs. due. ugh
Seriously. S--- it up and just throw out As for them all.
Yeah. You’re the type of instructor who killed the school. That’s a real “student first” attitude.
Communication about all of this did go out Bill. Check your email. Duh.
Stop thinking about yourself. There are others, like students worst off then you.
