Faculty should read their own psychology textbooks, because they do not teach their students values.
All the literature says that values are formed by age 10 or 11. By the time children get to high school, much less college, their values have already been formed.
One of the big arguments in favor of grading behavior is the teaching of responsibility, which of course teachers don't do. Because values are formed much earlier in life.
I experienced this when I taught my foster son how to drive at age 14. Twenty years later, he drives fine but he drives like his biological mother drives, not like how I drive. The research says we form our driving habits well before we learn to drive.
