Are commuters to blame for the poor working conditions in the public transport industry? No. Do commuters suffer when conductors go on strike? Yes. Does it work? Yes. Does complaining to your boss work? No. Its unfortunate but at the end of the day the only thing he can use (apart from quitting outright) as leverage is malicious compliance, which includes working the exact hours your paid and nothing more.

I feel for the student, but a workers' rights are more important to me. If I were in the students position I would be pissed, but not at the professor but at the institution. The same way I don't get mad at conductors going on strike because of poor working conditions even if I have already bought a ticket.

The 75 hours was also in reference to allowing every student to do the same (you either allow all students to have a look, or none), and I can tell from experience that it will end up taking quite a bit of time. Most students mean "could you go over the exam with me" when they ask to review their exam. Just having them glance at the red markings will generally not do them much good anyway. And putting them in a box for pick-up (while also being more unpaid work) is generally not allowed in my opinion. The university holds on to the exams for administrative purposes, meaning he would have to supply photocopies instead.
