Well, I am so good at venting to blogger I thought I would take another shot at it today. Today, had been a great day at school. All my professors showed up (its starting to become more of a trend that they dont) I talked my geology teacher to move back an assignment till thursday and I was wearing shorts! Its spring time in st george! I got my homework done during my break between classes and went and rented my movie for nutrition and went tanning before I had an appointment with a DSC counselor. I needed to sign up for a summer 2010 english class so that I could FINALLY get my associates of arts. (this is where it gets good) I sat down with the counselor and he pulls out my check list sheet and pulls up my classes. I tell him what my goal is and what I wanted to do, he looks at me hesitant to say anything. We start checking off all the classes I have taken and we get to my sewing credits, he says that those wont count, EXCUSE ME? They are the "same" class so those credits dont count towards your graduation, but lets see where you are before you get all upset. Um, okay already upset! All I need is a 2010 english class so I thought, I am short like 2 or 3 credits from the 60 you need for and associates. so that puts me at another blah class to get those dumb credits, but wait, he just minused another 6 credits because my sewing classes dont count. WHAT THE HELL?! ( my exact words to the poor man who is trying to help me) "why would you let me pay for and waist my time on 6 credits that you dont even count!? How can that be, they are credits, you dont care if I take bowling for hell's sake but your telling me my sewing credits dont count?" He explained that they are the same class and blah blah blah bull shit. Then I say well put me in the online english class I need because they fill up fast, he looks at me again and says you sure do have bad luck, you are still at sophomore credits you cant sign up till tomorrow. goodness, I was livid, I was in tears, I was absolutely furious and I think I said every four letter word I knew walking out of that office! I have had loads of lame experiences here at DSC, my opinion has always been stationary, DSC is RIDICULOUS. Today, more then ever my point was proven, they let me take a class that they offer, pay them 1200 dollars for those 6 credits then just like that they have the nerve to tell me they dont even count towards graduation, if they dont count towards graduation what the hell do they count for?! If they count for nothing then why is it a class, why do they offer a nothing class?? More the reason they are a JOKE. Oh, and the admin. building is condemned also. It didnt pass inspection, you would think a college, working to be a university would do proper updates on their campus. I will tell you one thing, I am transferring to another school, I dont care what the tuition differences is or if I loose credits. It will be better then all the shit dixie tries to pull. I am sick of proffesorrs giving me bad grades they cant back up, teachers not coming to class more then holding class, forcing us to attend school lectures as part of our grade, forcing us to attend the drama departments show (I have no MT classes) Sick of the small testing center that takes forever and day to get into, sick of the lame classes they require that no other school does (ie LIB 1010) ..... I am going to spend my tuition money else where. All in all, Dixies RED STORM (should have kept the rebels) can kiss my bottom.
