In court for fail marks

A MELBOURNE journalism student is hopeful his bold Supreme Court action will result in him avoiding a fail grade for a uni assignment about dogs.

Monash University student Chimnay Naik, 23, was failed in 2017 for a video assignment about the negative stereotypes around dog breeds and then failed again when it was re-marked, but he believes he was wronged.

“I want an exemption from the result based on the grounds the university did not conduct the review and re-marking procedures that they were supposed to,” Mr Naik said.
