She literally found some rando paper on the internet and copy and pasted it word for word and gave it to me. The fucking header even had the other person’s name and teacher on it.
Also, in related spam comments, just letting you know, mert, that when kids come in not knowing how to do MLA, we tried, oh we fucking tried. I spent daily for three+ months having the kids’ warmup be a quote with an author and page number and asked them to put in into MLA format.....they still can’t put the fucking period in the right spot.
They also legit think I have a personal issue with comic sans and think other teachers will be ok with it, so gl to all the profs out there. My hat is off to you and your struggles.
