My wife is currently a professor. None of that is true for her. She fails people all the time for cheating, non-attendance or whatever. She gives them a few chances not to dig their own grave, and some still do it. Re: Do whatever they want. She has a colleague who is a terrible teacher. She hears all the time and students learned nothing in her class. That teacher does run a couple of software businesses on the side, and most likely is just trying to find smart kids and recruit them for cheap coding labor. There is pressure to admit students from overseas colleges, where it's kind of known they are rich kids who cheated and bribed their way through undergrad programs and often come unprepared for the masters programs they are applying for. These are some the kids who I described at the start of my post, and the most egregious cheaters (turning in coding assignments with other people's names on them, getting caught cheating 5 times, and asking for a call where they ask if there's any way they can pass). It's nuts.
