Can a Professor fail you if..?
Can/ should a professor fail you even though at the mid term of the semester I revived a satisfactory grade for mid term( could not get anything higher than that). The mid- term grade at my school is gives you an indication of how you are doing in the course. I was not told that I was going to fail after the term ended and I was not given any warnings or anything. What should I do? It is only a 2 credit hour course but it will still bring down by GPA a lot.
Update:I handed in the assignments but did not know I did not receive full credit for them until the semester came to an end. I was unaware during the semester

Uh, yeah. Just because you weren't failing at the midterm doesn't mean you couldn't fail. If you didn't turn work in, turned it in late, didn't get good grades on the work you turned in, missed a lot of classes, didn't participate much in classes, did poorly on tests...all of those things would contribute to a poor grade. And from the sounds of it, you weren't exactly passing the class with flying colors before, so you probably didn't have far to go to get from passing to failing. So yes, it's possible.
You can certainly fail the course after doing well up to a certain point. At that point, you were not failing. Based on the work you've done since then, you are now failing. That's based on your grades, which you've got access to - you obviously knew you either hadn't been handing in work or had been failing that work.
