News flash moron, people have always sued and frequently won for reasons like this.

I think the matter would have been pretty easily settled when whatever judge oversaw the case got a look at Melon's grades. Had Barbay failed him, there would have been plenty of evidence to prove he was a lousy student.

Now, he might have got his car egged.

This is not against the rules. At a lot of large classes, you don't even have to attend. Money was no object.

Well, yeah, but remember, Thornton was supposed to be in the class taking notes, not his secretary doing it for him. Notice how Jason is cracking up when we first see him in the scene as well?

No, he said, "You will never, ever pass this course." I think he doesn't like the fact that Mellon bought his way into the school by giving the school a check. If he had actually been a hard worker going back to school, it might've been different.

He never said that he wouldn't pass him. He was saying that Mellon was too stupid to ever pass the course.

I was thinking the same thing. That would have probably been an easy lawsuit.
