If the math department cannot help me, then I will have to wait for my professor to eventually reply, and then figure out if he made an error. If he did not, and to be honest, I would be a bit surprised if he had, after all, he is a math teacher, then I need to see if I can convince him to bump me the 4-8 points needed, perhaps contingent upon his summer "boot camp" concept, and then get that grade adjusted. After the adjustment takes effect, I would then have to contact the EE chair, requesting my schedule be restored, and I expect that he would only be willing to give me the Circuits course, not fix my entire fall schedule, because that would be effort on his part, and it's easier to destroy than create, and he doesn't like me at all.

If I cannot in some way get the C, then I will have to send my email to the Dean of Engineering as a last appeal. By this time, I would expect it to be no earlier than Monday, and most likely Tuesday or Wednesday, and therefore, I would have already missed a couple of the classes.

The Dean would likely uphold the Chair, after all, what's a student in the scheme of things to them?

And if the Dean upholds the Chair's decision, and the Calculus professor has not made an error and will not budge, then... I don't know.

The work schedule has been created and sent to me and my coworkers. It was designed to exactly fit these classes, and only these classes. I can try to add Calculus II, stay with Calculus III at another better school, try to add Physics II... but neither the Calculus II nor Physics II would fit into the schedule as outfitted. And I can't take back some of the hours at work either. So I'll end up... sitting around the house at odd hours, instead of working, not making money.

Although now I'm really not liking the idea of going into the EE department, because my opinion of the leadership of that department is that they are fucking terrible.

This isn't my only negative encounter with them, FYI.

So I turned the company I interviewed with yesterday wanted to interview me again next week for another role. I turned them down.

The HR person called me to "talk it over" and I was in the middle of a meeting, so we're going to talk tomorrow.
