I'm off the hook, sort of...

Well, I talked to the Dean's Office today. Apparently, I missed a citation on my project. I actually didn't "miss" it, it just should have been in a different location. I still think that my professor could have talked to me personally about this but whatever. The rules say I'm supposed to get a zero on the project, but the officer took mercy on me ( Read more... )

How absolutely ridiculous. Seriously.

In my esteemed teacher opinion - that is complete bullshit. She must be an insanely petty person to take something as trivial as an incorrectly located citation to a tribunal. Sorry you had to go through that shit.

Yeah, and I think my punishment was basically a plea bargain. I'm sure that I could have taken a zero on the assignment and not have been put on probation. However, right now I'm working on my GPA, so taking a lower grade for the whole course would have affected me more. I knew the system was flawed from the beginning but this really is stupid.

That whole situation is just crap! Sorry you had to go through that!

Anyway, long time no chat! Hope married life is treating you well! :)

We're all good here, now. I'm over it. Eric and I hung the "disciplinary action" sheet on the fridge. Its the first time in 18 years of being in school that I've ever gotten in trouble for anything.
