You develop a relationship with the professor over time so it's not like they're some overlord. They're also not being recorded. Many people are very self conscious about their looks and don't like to be in photos. Being on a video for them is probably like torture. There's a lot of psychology in this. Many people at WGU are VERY stressed about proctored exams. Many people suffer from anxiety and this is just difficult for them to work through.
