A teacher has a phobia of snakes (a terrible one) and a student puts a snake on a project. The teacher freaks out when he/she sees this snake and immediately fails the student on that project causing a serious loss of grade and as a result GPA. Not to mention it was never stated that a snake was not allowed on the project, the student completely followed directions. While it is obviously unethical, is there any legal action the student could take?
