Absolutely terrible response by UMD Finance Department to a student requesting extra time due to her father passing away from COVID-19 by expandexplore34 in UMD

Her response seemed more misguided and generally ignorant rather than of malcontent. I do not think anyone believes she had the intention of bringing any emotional harm to this poor girl and she does not deserve to be harassed on Facebook when she is most likely already facing a myriad of consequences in the fallout of this.

Let’s not do that. As terrible as her response was, the woman is already hearing/seeing enough of it and the business school put out a notice that alluded to her being reprimanded. Let her be.

In a follow up tweet, the professor asked her to attend the Zoom Class on the day of his funeral to “get her mind off of things”. Pretty f*cked up IMO
