SO PISSED!!!!!! (long rant) --- Updated again! (bottom p1)
Original post by bluegreen08
My tax professor stood us up for the third time this semester!!
She was 35 min late for our hour long class on the first day, because she 'forgot' we meet at 2pm instead of 3pm. She then decided to cancel class and not take attendance, even though we all sat there for 35 min waiting for her. She also didn't show up 2 weeks ago and let us sit there for 10 minutes before someone from Career Services brought in a 'speaker' from the IRS who gave us a little talk on why we should work for the IRS. Most of us already have jobs lined up, and they should have given us the option to leave since they didnt take attendance again! (And few of us want to work for the IRS or are even qualified to do so)
Then my teacher decided to schedule a makeup class at 3pm on Friday... which was a pain, but then she didnt show up again today! we only have tomorrow and the week after thanksgiving left so I don't know if she's going to try to squeeze in another makeup... I don't have Friday classes (neither do most students) so I'd be really annoyed if she scheduled one for Friday afternoon again, since I'd otherwise be done for the semester on Thurs.
I wouldn't be pissed if she sent us an email or at least had someone tell us when we got there that class would be cancelled, but she just lets us sit there and wait for her.... over and over.... I think this shows no respect for the students who drove to school special for this class or wasted time sitting there
Please please for those of you who are teachers, let your students know if you plan to cancel class even if it's an email 5 minutes before. Don't let them sit there waiting for you.... for 30+ minutes... on 3 occasions...
Edit: I'm a law student so it's not like any of us live on campus... we are all commuter students

maybe she won't make up the classes then you have less things to study for the final....boy, i DO NOTTT miss law school
Maybe she can just go quickly or cut out some socratic method so we can speed along more quickly? My real estate prof is running behind too (partially because he forgot about labor day when writing up the syllabus) and he just cut 3 days of material from the syllabus. Poor guy was so sad about it too since he wrote the textbook (and a lot of the Restatement) but at least he's realistic...

Another Update: I spoke to a classmate and apparently she showed up with 10 minutes left to class. She forgot (again!) that we meet at 2pm instead of 3pm since we had a makeup at 3pm on Friday. We have met Mon/Tues/Wed/Thurs at 2pm all semester!
Classmate made it sound like we wont be having a makeup.... but I guess I'll find out today at 2pm... if she remembers we have class today
