SA, i'm so sorry to hear you have to deal with such a difficult person. However, I bet it can wait until you are done with your final. Don't let her ruin all the work you've put into studying. (or try not to - it's easy for me to say "don't".)

OMG, SA. That is awful.

wait... time to go to a department head

Oh, shit, SA, that's wretched. I do remember you mentioning it in passing before, and I remember thinking, "Well, that sounds too ridiculous to come to anything; obviously it'll all get straightened out."

Gah. You so do not need the stress and the stupid stupid battle right now, and you so do not deserve that un-grade.

What the fuck is wrong with the world?

I think the problem is stupid people.

SA, take a deep breath, smite her and enjoy graduation. You will probably have to go over this woman's head, to the department chair, and possibly a number of deans with your complaints, but the F will be removed one way or another.

I seriously can't think about it right now, because I have the most challenging final of all of my classes today at one. But I'm so fucking mad I'm shaking, a little, and I cannot believe this bitch had the temerity to give me this grade. I will have to deal with it this summer, but fuck, man. My gpa is down a whole tenth of a point for this.

SA do you have time to take a jog, or a brisk walk to work off the shakes?

It will pass. But what a day, right? Three days until graduation and she springs this bs on me.

That is the suxxor, SA. I had something similar happen to me way back when. I gave in too easily. I should have fought it harder. Does your school have an ombudsman? Anyway, the good news is that in the big scheme of things, it meant nothing. It hurt my pride and sense of justice, but I'm here, I'm living my life and I'm fine. You will be too.

Someday, SA, it will be reduced to A Story and nothing more. I changed my transcript retroactively to include/exclude classes at least twice after grades were entered. It just takes the right Dean and a little persistence.
