Never mind. All the grades were just posted to Blackboard and there is not a single A in sight.

Enough is enough — when to call quits
It seems ludicrous to think that any decision made in your freshman year of high school can have any bearing on your future, let alone dictate the rest of your life, but the reality is that it’s a slippery slope.

Uncanceling canceling
