So the system administrators could either (a) provide you the password 
for the full version of the assignments report, or (b) produce a report 
with aggregate data that is adequate for your and similar purposes, 
without details for any particular assignment.

One's perception of "low" might depend on whether one were a poachee or

I've been poached eight or nine times, and I'm tired of it.

an assignment for a year and was almost finished?
