MPH Experience Part 2

Well how do I start this post. We met with the Dean of Academic Affairs on Monday as a result of the email below:

I am very disappointed that you have chosen to reschedule our meeting for a second time in regards to the Applied Epidemiology course in which all three students failed and myself with a grade of F. It would seem as if this is very unimportant to you. I have received a failing grade in a course in which I did not earn and in which a teacher in your program failed to teach me and demonstrated a total disregard to teaching and a disdain for his students. I have been attempting to discuss this matter since May 6th. I have requested time off from my full time job twice for the prospect of getting this situation resolved before the start of my practicum. Out of respect for your request that we do not do anything until you meet with Dr. M on May 12th, we did not proceed further because you stated you would provide an update. We have asked for that update and have been ignored consistently. I feel unaware as to how to proceed and who to proceed with. I need someone to understand the predicament I am in academically, financially and emotionally and respond accordingly. Please advise.


This email was not written to her it was written to the Dean of my program, I copied her on it out of my frustration of not being taken seriously or a priority. She responded meeting with us during the previously scheduled time for our dean. She was poised, informative and articulate. Something I hope to be some day as a mature. I see why she has the position she has. I did not feel better after having met with her, if anything I felt worst about the possible outcome however, I did feel heard and that meant a lot to me. Diplomacy is priceless. The Assist Dean of AA did mention, on more than one occasion, that my Dean was very upset by the email above. I have re-read and asked a number of other people what they thought of the email and was it upset worthy. They all said no. They stated it was to the point and expressed my feelings regarding a very serious issue. I know I can be sharp with my words that is why I try to get others opinion before I send out potent emails. Let me know what you think!

I found it almost laughable that the Dean was upset by this email. I wonder does she realize I am UPSET receiving a grade that I did not earn and no one that is able to help me is helping or listening.
