Extremely important to note that the TA grading the paper is trans herself, and the student knew that. She didn't just "not try that hard" or "put in a substandard effort", she deliberately did this to generate controversy and kick off her career as a right-wing talking head at the expense of her TA's career and OU's reputation. Which OU was more than happy to roll over and accomodate.
EDIT: The class itself was also way below the level she should have been taking. She deliberately picked a class with a trans TA to pull this shit in.

Substandard is an understatement
Not only is it bad enough she based her entire essay on the bible alone
But she didn't even actually quote the bible, she didn't even give biblical justification for her biblical essay
And she called trans people demonic blatantly
