Maybe the reasoning was this...?

They have two brains so they're two students learning.

They have one body so it's just one working

That’s pretty much it. They’re legally two people and can get certified for things independently. They both have a driver’s license for example. However, as teachers they can only teach one class at a time. It’s all just the nature of their problem. Though I will say it seems like the college probably could have worked with them a little bit given their unique situation.

Can one of them sue for unpaid wages? They were there working after all...

I saw a documentary on this a while back. People say they get one salary but that’s not exactly correct. They each have a contract and each get paid, but neither of them get paid what a normal teacher makes.
