NTA for being angry she didn’t enter a report or escalate this to someone else. But, help clear this up for me: You work at a college in a department. You and another professor discover that one student is attending your class but not the other. Is this Carol working in admin? Registrar’s office? Why not contact her supervisor and report her lack of follow through/report and her comment? This reads like you are writing this as the kid with no understanding of how college/university departments work OR this is a teeny tiny college with a very small number of students.
