But the situation didn't change. The plan that UNC put together couldn't possibly have succeeded in the situation as it existed in both the spring and summer. They did completely ignore the warnings. In particular, they had almost zero testing. That couldn't possibly work.

It's certainly a reasonable request.
In many cases, the professor will have it, especially if they have taught the class before. In that case, why not send it?
If you don't have it, then of course that's a good reason not to send it.
I don't understand your issue.

Of course there's a proof. It's easy to compute
1/30 = \lim_{n\to\infty} \Gamma(n+1)^6 \exp(6n) n^{-6n} \pi^{-3} - 8n^3 - 4n^2 - n
In fact,
\lim_{n\to\infty} \Gamma(n+1)^6 \exp(6n) n^{-6n} \pi^{-3} =
8n^3 + 4n^2 + n + 1/30 - (11/240)/n + (79/3360)/n^2 + (3539/201600)/n^3 +...

By the way, he's not a mathematician. He didn't even write an actual PhD dissertation. He just wrote a survey paper explaining other people's results. Normally a dissertation solves some problem or advances mathematical research. He didn't do that.

She says she threatened to resign and then Google fired her. That's really quite different than if she actually resigned. To me this is at the heart of the issue. If she wants to resign, she should resign. But if she's just frustrated and venting, I wouldn't fire her for that.

School closures *do* help kids in all schools, because by reducing the fixed overhead costs in half-full schools you increase the dollars per student available for actual education.
Your position is equivalent to saying they could just open twice as many schools with no cost.
