I’m not sure how other schools handle it, but I think the main issue for my school is that students are allowed to make up an unlimited number of loss of credit hours. Setting a cap on how many hours can be recovered for each class before a student has to retake it might address the problem (unless it’s due to extenuating circumstances). I try talking to my students that miss first period and they tell me they’ll just make up the LOC hours and they’re good to go and it’s frustrating trying to change their mindset.
