University paper that is spelled wrong but still is totally readable?

Answer 1

It should receive a failing grade. The idea of a college education is not to demonstrate that you have knowledge of a specific subject, but to demonstrate that you are capable of following instructions, have discipline enough to follow through and can learn sufficiently to present yourself as an "educated" person.

In general, University requirements are at a much higher level than trade schools or other schools which may only require that you learn a specific subject.

The goal of a university is to send out graduates who can be conversant on a broad range of topics, with a strong emphasis in one or two specific areas of expertise. If that is not your goal, perhaps you should transfer to a trade school.
