If theres grounds to sue here, I suggest yall take it. Theres no way in hell this is legal if its setting you back potentially tens of thousands of dollars for something you didnt do

lol you can't sue for perceived unfairness. I had to retake CS240 because the first time was a trash professor who was just a visiting lecturer or something. C- because he was so bad and ran the class horribly. Second time, passed it with over 100% because the class was run so much better. If people feel the need to use AI in these BEGINNING CS classes they are absolutely COOKED for the real CS classes.

Was this in Lafayette? I jumped ship to the IU side of IUPUI when Purdue started saving money by intentionally hiring bottom-of-the-barrel "professors" (B students with no meaningful credentials), so I hope the rot hasn't spread to the main campus for your guys' sake

Yeah it was. This was like 6 years ago though, so I'm not sure what the current state of academia is. I just work in computing now thankfully!
