Venting

Sorry, but I feel like I am getting the shaft at school. I tripped down the stairs and sprained the ligaments in my ankle pretty bad two weeks ago and I'm in a cast. I had a field trip that week for one of my geology classes. The doctors said I couldn't go cause it was a lot of walking and hiking around mountains, things hard to do in a cast.

So my professor was going to come up with a plan for me to do something else for the final project. He told me that I will be doing what everyone else is doing, even though I didn't go. I essentially have to use someone else's data to try to come up with an 8 page report about the geography and the rocks that everyone saw. So my passing this class depends basically on someone letting me cheat off of them. I'm in my junior year and in order to go to Grad school I really would like/need to have at least 3.0 in all my semesters. But if I fail, that will mess up my GPA. I am pissed cause I am getting punished because I was injured, and someone else is getting punished because I have to use their data after they worked hard on the trip to collect it. Classes end in 2 weeks, and I don't think I can get this report done, or at least have it done well enough to get a BYell

Re: Venting

  • That really stinks! So sorry to hear that you hurt your ankle and that you hurt it at a very inopportune time!

    I don't know what exactly the project entails, but it does sorta sound like the only way to do the project without being able to go on the trip.  Did you come up with any other ideas??

  • Is there a way a friend could go up there to take some pictures? or did anyone take pictures in your class? I'm a visual person so if I were you I would be equally as upset!
