When I showed up to class on Monday, there wasn’t professor. We waited 45 minutes (the 3 of us) and finally went to Admissions, which sent us to the Dean of Engineering + Mathematics. She told us she would call us on Tuesday and let us know what was going to happen. Tuesday morning I went up to the college and asked if she knew anything yet, she said, told me that for sure we’d have a class or independent study. When I left I doubled check with her and she told me, she would call me later in the day.
I didn’t get a phone call on Tuesday. So I went up to the college in the morning to switch classes to Red Hat Linux Essentials.
Today (Wednesday) I get home from high school and I get a message telling me to come in because the class is go! So now the class is going on with one of the best professors, without me, and only 2 other students!!!
Why didn’t I just wait until the end of the day Wednesday? Because the college class counts as both high school and college credit and I didn’t want to get behind. I was afraid that I would not be able to make up the extra work due having to mange all my high school classes. In addition one of the other Professors told me that he was highly surprised that the class was going on and that it wasn’t canceled. Finally when we talked to the dean she suggested that the class might be independent study, which was something I did not feel comfortable with.
I guess I’m just a bit ticked because the dean was unable to call me when she say she would and it resulted that I lost out on a very small sized class with a really good professor.
However, on the bright side it might be better. I hopefully be able to get Cisco and Red Hat certified after the spring semester. If things go as planned I should be able to take Cisco 3 + 4 in the spring along with the next Red Hat class.
