cliffs on the e-mails:

e-mail 1 (dean to student) : don't lie to us. We're going to find out and you will be kicked out if you are lying.

e-mail 2 (student to dean) : I have all my grades so I don't care

e-mail 3 (dean to student) : sir, please accept my apology on behalf of our entire department. It will never happen again. Your teacher is going to get pwned.

nice. i got many B-s in general education classes (I was an econ major) where politics were involved...don't worry man, those type of people will never amount to anything and die in debt.

This is also why i take with a grain of salt high GPAs of people whom i interview. It usually means they are good at regurgitating Professor/TA opinions (which in most cases are extremely left wing).

:roll: The Department and Professor here were thoroughly professional. The TA is the one that sucks ass.

Now you gotta go to the other school the TA is at and own her over there.

Like George Constanzo did when he went all the way to Ohio to deliver the "jerk store" line.

But that wasn't good and he got owned.

I had Teachers like that in School in the 70's.

Good job OP.

I wish I could find out where she is.... she has the most basic of basic names, so even a google search yields nothing... like Mary Smith... very close :

Something this week reminded me of this, so i decided to post about it. When I went to college a few years back, my senior year I needed a writing course to fulfull a general education requirement. I decided to take Introduction to American History [Civil War-Present]. It was a BS 100 level class with all freshman and it was basically the same thing I took in 10th grade and got a 99 on the Regents Exam (NYers will know what these are). Anyway, I took the course as a joke (I even pass failed it, so I wouldn't worry about my GPA) and focused more on my major classes. The class was graded as such:

20% Two Short papers
30% Three Long Papers
30% 2 Tests in class
20% Discussion section (ran by the TA adjuncting to the main lecture)


The two short papers I received an A- and a C on
The three long papers I received a C, B, and B+ on
The midterm I received an A on, I did not know my final grade but I assumed a B/B+ it was simple
The discussion section was another story...

This TA was a very liberal woman from san francisco, I myself am a conservative... she ran the discussion in a very very liberal bias (see, she bashed George Bush non stop, with many nonsensical "he's dumb" type comments, she bashed the military, etc.)... many occasions happened where I had to correct her on basic nonsense (small example, she tried to argue that nobody with any credibility ever said that the Lusitania was suspected of carrying armaments in it that was just one...)

One day a girl of Korean origin raised her hand and began to bash the US gov'ts policy towards South Korea. This really bothered me, but I let it slide, whatever, let her feel that way. The teacher went on a tirade about how the United States doesn't support South Korea, and then a bunch of other countries along with it. This infuriated me. There were a bunch of bright eyed freshman listening to a lady with verbal diareah(sp?) giving her heavily biased opinion the United States' foreign policy. So I raised my hand and when she looked over at me (she didnt like me to begin with since I corrected her many mistakes, usually not obnoxiously, but sometimes I was a dick, because I couldn't believe this woman was given the job of teaching assistant)... so I said something to the lines of "As far as I know, and last I checked we have a large force protecting the Nort/South Korean border, that's not the obligation the United States" The lady flipped out and went on a tirade that I shouldn't make it a racial issue, to what I responded that it wasn't an opinion like she had been giving, it was a fact...

From that moment on I knew she was going to fail me... anyway, I check my grades after the semester, and I see an F... I flip out and email a head of the history department asking wtf was up and I get back: Text

I respond with: Text

at that point I drive up all of my papers to school (3+ hours away)

by the time I get home, I see this in my email box: Text


I hope you enjoyed that story


Cliffs:
- I'm pretty conservative, I have a liberal TA for an intro history course I took my senior year
- The TA starts to teach these freshman her opinion was if it were fact
- I would frequently challange her assertations to which she became hostile with me
- She fails me.
- I email the head of the department
- He writes back: Text
- I write back: Text and go up to school 3+ hours and drop off my work
- He writes back: Text

- Profit!

what reason did she give in failing you?

how did you prove your attendance?

Something tells me that you (the OP) are never going to get anywhere in life.

I have to side with the TA. It's probably because I was one when I was a Ph.D. student having to deal with whiny little brats like you (the OP). It's amazing how much crap we had to put up with. And I doubt you would ever understand, since it's unlikely you'll ever get into grad school, but believe me, it's hard for us to put up with people like you.

So you'll fail someone because they criticized you? I'm sure you would make a great teacher.

Uh, what? She failed him because of his political views. How can you possibly side with her? He has clear evidence of his graded exams/papers and his attendance. WTF?

Shens. No one can possibly be so stupid as to not believe the associate dean and have a Ph.D.

Goes to show how much a Ph.D. is worth.
