College students and faculty evaluated the reasonableness of 48 circumstances for missing class. For 46% of the items, students and faculty showed significant differences with faculty more strongly disagreeing with the items' reasonableness. In addition, many faculty indicated that a pattern of using such reasons could affect their willingness to work with students independently or to write letters of reference. Only 39% of the faculty, however, indicated they would confront a student about the legitimacy of these reasons
