Aims, how bad a hit is the D on your GPA? Is it the only one? A transcript of As and Bs with only one D isn't anything to sneeze at. It's like the beauty mark on Marilyn Monroe's face, something to emphasize the quality of everything else.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I sent her a follow up email. If that doesn't work then I'll go to the department head. Which I'll feel shitty about, but like you say, I've nothing to lose.

Hil - can you have a conversation with your department chair before writing the letter? Then your chair might give you an idea of how you should state your intentions.

I think that this professor thinks that I'm trying to pull some shit. She's being a total hardass. Which, I get. I really do. But fuck. I'm tring to fix a mistake. If I can't, I can't. But maybe a little leeway? I've never asked for an exception before in my school life.
Oh well. Guess my idiocy stands.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Aims, did I see in Natter that you can retake the class and replace the grade?
I called in itchy and sleep-deprived. Feel better now, having slept some more, but my face looks worse. Blisters all around my mouth. Looks like I participated in a poison ivy pie-eating contest.

smonster - the original advisor was wrong. I would get a better grade, but it wouldn't replace this one.
