I feel this thread. One of the reasons I give blanket extensions is BC I’m the only Black woman in my dept. I get enough misogynoir in my teaching evals, I’m not about to add on this. So I understand.
It does make even more work for me later, so I give little to no feedback.

I will say, I find these conversations cringe because some students never give faculty any grace. They don’t care.
Part of these #AcademicTwitter convos around extensions, ethics of care, etc. need to consider how students back faculty (esp. w/ marginalized IDs) into corners.

Reciprocity is a real thing. And I understand power dynamics. Yes.
And yet, when students ask for extensions and we grant them, sometimes the same student will say “took too long to give feedback” on the eval.
The math ain’t mathing.

When you add this with OPs point, which coincidentally was discussed in my diversity class this week, that many students automatically position classes lower in their to do list when it de enters whiteness, there’s some there there to consider.
