PLease rewrite this ……
To whom it may concern:
I Rico Burgess, was enrolled in the Master program at FIU. I
was retaken a Pathophysiology with Dr. Delugash. I had knew this was my final attempted taking
the course as I took the course with her previous. The first time taking with
her she was able to grade all of the exam before the midterm or the last day
that one could dropped the course. She had offer an addition exam for student
to replace their lowest exam during my first attempt with course during the fall
semester, not sure why that offer.
On March 12th, I message Dr. Delugash stating “Good
day, when can i schedule an appointment with you to see my best options?”
As she was also my advisor for the program and the professor I was struggling
in her course, it felt it was conflict of interest. She message me back stating
” I can meet Wednesday, the 20th” knowing that I’m
failing her course and at this point she had not graded mulit-assignment so
that I or other could had calculator my final grade.
As I am registered nurse, I know that I was the possibility me
of failing this course was, but it was hard for me to make a decision with all
of my assignment was due prior of the final date dropped a course. It would be
like me working in the ICU as nurse and making a diagnoses with result that are
pending test results.
As I noted she still haven’t graded mulit assignment, I decided
to email her again on March 18th “Exam 2 Good morning,
when the last day to drop classes for the semester is?”
As on March 18th I was hospitalization for my gout
as I was newly diagnose from previous day prior having a gouty attack not knowing.
She responded on March 19th “All university dates
can be found at https://onestop.fiu.edu/academic-calendar/
The
deadline to drop a course with a DR was March 18. Did you still want to
meet tomorrow? If so, is 11:30 a good time?”
I responded March 19th “Good day. I wanted
to discuss the possibility of dropping the course because I am now failing it,
as well as test 2 because I am struggling with the case studies on the exam.
Yes, I saw the dropped day online; however, I assumed it was a later day
according to the date you scheduled our meeting. I truly hoped and
expected midterm would be graded so that I would know what to do next. Yes, I’d
want to meet you tomorrow.”
During the meeting she still haven’t graded Exam 2 nor the mid-term
reflection assignment. I then emailed the Department of Nursing to found out
that I was an out of date.
I was already enrolled into the summer semester, and was told
that I would be withdrawn from the course then to find out they never withdrawn
from the course, so I started a payment plan and started the course. To find
out now that they withdraw me from the course and I have a balance with
FIU. And wish I do not desire it.
I’m here by asking whomever to review this to allow me back
in the program, as I was following what the handbook stated to contact your
advisor before withdrawing from any course, Unfortuantly she the professor/advisor
was overwhelm that she could not had time to grade the assignment nor schedule
an appointment in a timely manner to help out.
As I previous took her course she allow the student to take
make up exam and she now didn’t allowing us to take a makeup exam. As it was
never on either syllabus. It leave me think if she did for a favor for someone
in the fall semester not for spring semester.
