There is no excuse for refusal to learn. You don't wanna work your brain, then eat my dust, D-boy! :p
I mean, on the serious side, what's the point of studying your ass off if Dickie Dum-Dum is going to get a decent grade because the curve is so extreme that you could NOT take the test and pass...or because the teacher doesn't want to hurt his feelings by failing him. We're rewarding intentional stupidity and laziness.
...All this talk about how it'll damage his self-esteem if we give him a bad grade...It SHOULD. A person SHOULD feel stupid for not studying. It all comes back to responsibility for one's own actions. Those who work their asses off should be rewarded. Those who don't, shouldn't be.
So THERE. *sticks out my tongue* nyah, nyah, nyah....
