Canvas now sends a photo of angry Mike Riley to your professors when you fail an exam

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln is always trying tirelessly to improve student life and achievement, to make the huge and sometimes intimidating world of higher academia as accessible as possible to help students succeed and make a difference in their communities. In the spirit of this noble mission, UNL adopted the online software Canvas a few years ago in order to help students and professors collaborate in a more modern and accessible way.

But UNL is anything but stagnant or unambitious, and just having Canvas wasn’t quite enough. There needed to be something more, something really revolutionary in order to thrust UNL students into the leading roles they deserve. There’s no place like Nebraska and UNL is determined to prove that.

Ever felt like the primal desperation and rage you feel after failing a test was similar to your frustration at Nebraska’s 2017 football season (the worst since 1961)? Well UNL felt your frustration and now you will be able to send that feeling to your professors and administrators in seconds.

Starting in the 2018-2019 academic year, students can now easily send a personally customized and perfected photograph of enraged former Cornhuskers coach Mike Riley yelling at their professors and faculty to do better when they fail an exam through Canvas.

“I saw Mike Riley’s quite visible and real frustration on the sidelines whenever the Huskers lost another narrow defeat and suddenly came up with the idea,” Chancellor Ronnie Green stated, “I was like, man, all of my students have that feeling all the time!”

The photo customization options will be comprehensive and include such features as: an anger meter ranging from lackluster punt to Tanner Lee interception, control of how much spit is flying out of Riley’s mouth, and decisions on what angle Riley’s headset will hit the target’s face at.

Students will also be able to decide if Scott Frost is in on the furious action as well depending on how bad the 2018 season goes.
