When Nick Lutz and his girlfriend Elizabeth split up, it seems things didn’t end well.
But then, his ex wrote him a long letter apologising for everything she did wrong. An admirable move, owning up to your mistakes and being the bigger person, right?
We'd like to say Nick reacted in kind... But he really didn't.
He responded by grading the heartfelt letter like it was a school essay.
Using the traditional teacher's red pen, he underlined parts, corrected her spelling and offered feedback.
At the end, he gave this overview:
Long intro, short conclusion, short hypothesis but nothing to back it up. Details are important. If you want to be believed, back it up with proof.
You claim that cheating never occurred but place blame on yourself — then what for? Need to stop contradicting your own story and pick a side.
While this gesture is appreciated I would prefer details over statements.
Revision for half credit will be accepted.
He gave her a final grade of 61/ 100, D-.
He then posted it online, where it understandably caused quite a stir.
Sounds like she made a lucky escape.
