CaptainViolence posted:how does this work in most places? because at my university that would have been illegal as gently caress and we even had to sign a document acknowledging that we were properly informed about how badly we could sue the school over it One issue that OP was doubtless aware of before choosing to do this is his son can't turn him in, because if he gets fired, then the son would no longer be the immediate family member of a staff member, so wouldn't get free tuition anymore, so he's able to weaponize this to prevent the son from turning him in or he won't be able to afford college anymore. As is raised in the comments though, even if the son doesn't report OP, the access logs of employees in orgs where FERPA is relevant are tracked to make sure no one does poo poo like this. OP won't be assigned tasks that involve looking at his family members' grades due to conflict of interest, and if his boss or IT or whatever finds out that he's been abusing his power to look at his son's grades without his permission, he might be in hot water anyway even if his son doesn't report him.

I used to work in the public school system as a computer toucher, and I would have been turbo-fired and blackballed from any government job if I so much as looked at the school admin system. I can’t imagine it’s much different in universities.

It's taken even more seriously at the college level since the students, being adults, actually have some enforceable rights. Plus, since their grades can only be given to people who they have given access to in the system, it's very routine for admin staff to be trained not to give them to people missing from the list who ask, like helicopter parents. Not that it's exactly at play here but since people trying to obtain unauthorized access to grades is pretty common, people check for it much more often than in elementary or high school. AITA for not letting my daughter use her college fund for a VTuber avatar? quote:I had saved up a 20,000 college fund for my oldest daughter (19,) and was upset when she said that she would not be going to college. I am holding her fund until she decides she wants to go to college or do any sort of training. Invisible Clergy fucked around with this message at 06:32 on Oct 6, 2022 |

AITA For begging my boyfriend not to being Heinz Ketchup to Omakase?quote:Sorry this all seems ridiculous but I need a sanity check. I consider myself a "foodie" but my boyfriend Jay is the exact opposite. Like he'll literally eat but it's more than that — he always starts things with me when I try to take him out for good food. For example last year I got us reservations at a steak house and he made a point of ordering his steak well done with ketchup. The thing is he doesn't even like eating the food this way he does it to "make a point" that no one, not even I, can tell him how to eat his food.

Edit: and apparently she sees his birthday as an excuse to splurge on an expensive meal for herself despite knowing he doesn’t want it.

No, gently caress this guy in the ear. Anyone who treats staff like poo poo, from the waitstaff to the chef, is a major league rear end in a top hat and has a preapproved ticket to the acid vats. The OP isn't innocent here, but that's no excuse to insult a chef to their face in their own restaurant like that.

OK..... don't panic. he may have the world's best ketchup recipe, but nobody knows our ketchup doesn't have real tomato flavor. he's no threat to us..... "that's just it, sir! they've been going restaurant to restaurant and----" *trumpet sound* hear ye, hear ye! come try it! simply the best ketchup in the world! now with real tomato flavor!

He's throwing a tantrum because he's a food-dumb-dumb and is probably a small boy who got put into the body of an adult by the machine from Big. But that's also why he's right about it being a bad gift; OP already knows her boyfriend is a baby but is trying to put the square block in the round hole anyway and is getting frustrated that the square block is responding with threats of ketchup terrorism.

It's the longest engagement I know! but!!! he said he wanted to really really be sure about this next step which's marriage while trying to work out some issues we have. I mean, at least he tried to get his fiancee involved in his attempt to cheat, rather than suggest an open relationship???

Invisible Clergy posted:In the US, where most aita characters are from unless otherwise specified (even if you don't make this assumption, since OP deems it noteworthy to mention the son doesn't live on campus and calls them 'grades" instead of "marks," and college isn't already free lends credence to him being american) yes this is super illegal. Most newer UK universities are campus based, they definitely are not free, and I could just about see grades instead of marks. So this is not hard and fast. Pretty sure it would still be illegal though.

My ultimate point was that I'm only familiar with US educational law/FERPA and didn't want to opine on how it works in the UK without knowing much about it. Most likely. Do UK universities give letter grades? I thought they used first, upper/lower second, and third, or has this been changing in recent years?

AITA for wanting my wife to accept that there are multiple ways to view and/or do things, and for wanting to then discuss strategies to improve and strengthen our relationship?quote:So my wife and I were preparing to go out this morning with the toddler and infant, and while I was preparing the baby bag, I asked my wife where she wants me to put the saline drops. She says "in the front pocket". So I looked for the inner pocket just adjacent to where the arm straps are located (imagine a backpack with arm straps. I put the drops just inside the side where the straps attach). I always thought of that side as the "front" of a backpack, because it is further towards the front direction that we move towards when walking.
