A lot of the issues here seem to be a product of the US education system that defers excessively to the students (probably because they’re paying big bucks). But it could be worse. I did my grad studies in a European University where there was only one examination at the end of the year with no option to contest or even get feedback. The year before mine a Nobel prize winning professor made a mistake on one of his test questions, causing the half of the class that chose that question to fail. Even though it was his fault, there was no recourse. One half of the class had to repeat the entire year-long course!
