I try to be kind, but stuff like this is infuriating.
student: "I missed the quiz yesterday! Can I make it up?"
me: "I reminded you about the quiz in all 3 lectures last week, I sent 2 emails to the whole class about it, quiz dates are in the course syllabus you received on the first day of class, and it's posted in 2 different places on the course website. If there's anything else I can possibly do to make it more clear, please let me know."
student: "So I can make up the quiz?"
