I've waited 29 days for return of my 1st assignment - and still waiting - hopeful of delivery tomorrow (Friday) - the second due next Wednesday - if it doesn't make the mail tomorrow
Plus - what about double standards
- if an assignment is submitted late - marks are lost...

Should I get extra marks if theirs is late?
- if one makes any mistake in references marks are deducted... my subject 'Study Guide' and 'Summaries' are full of incorrect page references (all reference a prior edition) - one page even directs "not examined in 2004" - perhaps the government grant may allow the university to do an update of printed material for distance students!
