I disagree. I found the writing lucid and compelling, with a powerful grasp of the evidence and a well reasoned conclusion. While the middle sections wander a bit, as a whole it hangs together nicely.

I'd give it an A-

I am sorry. A- is not a valid mark.

Student used "ubb" as an abbreviation for Ultimate Bulletin Board, so that needed to be "UBB" if abbreviated.

C+ is surely closer to the mark?

Nevertheless, you can't deny that the argument is theoretically sophisticated and makes an important contribution to the literature. It will surely influence all future generations of scholars with its paradigm shifting implications ...

How about a B+?
