So, a little backstory first.
In the spring of 2011, I went and spoke with my advisor (for college) who gave me a list of all the classes I needed to graduate.
I took fifteen hours in the spring, twelve over the summer and fifteen over fall, thinking that I only needed another fifteen hours and I would be done. (meaning, I'd only have to take five classes in the spring)
Cut to November. I am in the advising center, with a different advisor, and I mention graduation in May. She looks at me funny.
"You know you have 21 hours left to graduate, right? ANNNNND you can't take this strategic management course without taking this finance course first. Why did you take the other finance course this semester"
".......because....nobody....told me...it...was...a....pre-req...."
SO.
I sign up for a correspondence course to take the finance class.
Over the christmas holidays, I check my grades and look at my unofficial transcript and
O NOES I FAILED A CLASS!?
WTF MATE. So I email the professor and ask what's up, and also to speak with him, because if I actually failed I want to know what I did wrong.
No Answer.
Fast Forward to today.
I am under the impression that when I finish this Finance course, that I will need to take 18 hours and then go beg and plead with the dean to allow me to take another correspondence course for Business Law, which will put me at 21 hours.
I will be working ALL semester, have no free time, but I will graduate in May, God damnit.
I go and talk to the man with the plan, so he can push me into the management class I still need and I mention needing to take business law. He looks at me funny and tells me
I DON'T NEED IT BECAUSE I PASSED AND THE PROFESSOR NEVER BOTHERED TO EMAIL ME BACK LETTING ME KNOW IT WAS HIS MISTAKE AND HE CHANGED MY GRADE
TL;DR
Professor forgot to tell me he graded wrong and I am no longer going to bring guns to school.
Best. Day. Ever.
