No one here thinks turning in late work is OK (barring a legitimate excused reason such as being in the hospital, in which case presumably a dean of students would be involved from the get-go to “certify” the legitimacy).

I would never go to such lengths to “certify” someone’s excuses. While I often take late work, the consequences for the student of regularly turning things in late are generally seen in their poor grade results. If you are not keeping up, then you are not keeping up, as it were.</p>
