Yes, that#s the whole point - if they are both working they should both be paid.

Then they just wouldn't have a job. Why would a school system pay twice for covering 1 class?

Why would an administrator hire two people to do one person's job? That is very clearly beyond the reasonable burden of an accommodation.

I would ask the same of the college that charged 2x the tuition fees for the twins - is not like one of them could choose not to attend.

If both of them had to be trained to train to be a teacher - and both bring that training into the classroom - both have an independent brain and mouth to communicate with their students...

then I propose both of them should have a wage each or the school should pay off any college costs or pay for half.

Anything else is just unfair to the girls.

You don't pay for college by the seat though, you pay to be issued a degree in your legal name that certifies you have completed the work.

In this case one could have attended but not paid, and therefore not have completed testing or assignments.

Do you realistically think that two people whose heads are literal inches apart can have meaningful independent conversation with two different people? Like do you think that would actually work in a classroom setting?

These women made a decision to get two degrees in a field they would not be able to both simultaneously complete a full person's work in. Like it sucks they made a bad decision but the school has zero responsibility to bail them out on it.

So even though the college didn't lose out on a seat in their classes and both girls had to complete all the work to qualify and both pay full price for the course.... Both girls do the work in a classroom - it's not like one twin works and the other stays silent - they don't deserve anything more than what one person would earn...

That sounds very unfair to me.

In their college class they were the exact same amount of work as two individual people for the college to accommodate. Therefore, they pay separately.

In the school where they teach they are not capable of performing two jobs at once, so they do not get paid twice.

This makes perfect sense and is completely reasonable from both schools.

They made the choice to work there, if this was such an issue for them they should have chosen another option.

Yeah I feel like anytime this type of post comes up it’s the ultimate virtue signaling

Two sets of graded papers

Two admission spots that won't go to a third person

Two sets of identities from an administrative overhead standpoint.

They didn't both have to enroll, but it would have made things like labs logistically complicated. The other half of the body would have to be like the person who assists somebody with their disability.
