At the college level, yes it is possible.

If you fail to do the assigned work, the prof can inform you that you've already flunked the course and there's no reason for you to continue attending. I've done that with students who were too far behind to ever complete all assignments.
As far as I know, s/he can't prevent you from coming to class if you've already paid for it. But would you want to?

I know that I have to jump through a lot of hoops to drop a student from my class, even for complete lack of attendance. But some places do give faculty a lot of freedom in this area, so it might be possible. I would say only if there is a complete lack of submission of assignments and/or significant lack of class attendance.

Yes. At the community college at which I teach we have a mandatory exclusion period where we have to drop anyone who hasn't done any work in the first two weeks of class.

Yes, I would look over your syllabus to see what your professor has written over participation/attendance.

Yes. Depending on how many assignments you miss you could end up in a situation where it's impossible to pass the class. For example, let's assume a class only has 4 major assignments for the semester and your grade is based only on those 4 assignments. If you miss the first 2 assignments even if you get 100% on the final two assignments your grade for the course will be a 50%. Realistically, you probably aren't going to get a perfect score on the last 2 assignments.
As someone else mentioned your professor would likely have a talk with you to let you know they're dropping you from the course at that point. If they do allow you to keep attending regardless and you want to bother going through the trouble it may be worth your while.
When you take the class again in the future you'd have a better idea of what to expect. That's a MAJOR booster. It's like collecting the invincibility mushroom of college and using it to save Princess Peach (and your GPA is Princess Peach in this case).
Personally, I always find I do a lot better in anything (schoolwork, job interviews, etc) when I know what to expect going into it. Unfortunately, the reality is you rarely ever know what to expect going into it.

Depends on how high the student is. Liberal much?

Yes. It is the right of any instructor who has the right and given carte blanche by the principal or a faculty member to do this in any school.

University profs can just decide they don't like your face and tell you to get the hell out.

In the event that you pull out from a course before the scholastic punishment date, you will get a Withdraw Without Penalty (WN) grade. That evaluation isn't inlcuded in the estimation of your Grade Point Average (GPA).

I'm not sure what "lack of active participation in assignments" is supposed to mean. Are they group assignments and you're not participating? Are they graded assignments and you're not handing them in? Are you not logging in to required discussions?
In any event, the answer is maybe. Read your syllabus. What are the requirements? One of my classes required students to log into the class at least three times a week or be dropped.
You can't just assume, these days, that you can just not turn something in, collect the zero, and let your grades on the other assignments and exams make up for it. Even if it wouldn't bring your grade down that much, it might be a required assignment.

I have never seen that happen. What I have seen are courses in which a certain percentage of the grade is based on participation. That policy was always communicated in the syllabus. If the student did not participate, he would get a zero for that part of his grade.

As long as they pass the exams, I think they should get a pass on principle. It indicates they were knowledgeable and they must have felt they didn't need the assignments in the first place.
